Painting

My kids love painting more than just about anything else. I prefer wet paints to paint pots but sometimes the pots are just so much easier to deal with.  Red Fish has gotten very adept at using the watercolor pots but the tempera cakes are so much easier for New Fish still. The tempera's pigment is easier to pick up.  New Fish still ends up with a lot of brown when we use caked paint because she hasn't quite mastered the art of rinsing her brush between the desired colors and they end up mixed more than she probably intends.  She doesn't care though.  It's amazing what a girl can do with shades of brown.
