Actually a bunch of women (and a couple of little girls). They were working on a huge sheet of paper, adding colour and texture with paint and crayon, brushes and combs and fingers. It was a joy to watch and photograph!
This was mainly an exercise in helping the students to let go. The overall finished product was a bit muddy because by the time everyone in the group had experimented with all the colours and techniques, a lot of the original diversity was gone. It was so cool to watch though.
🙂 I’m not crazy about the feeling of anything that dries on my hands — clay, flour, paint. I’ve got better and can bake bread now, but I’m not sure that finger-painting or ceramics will ever be my “things”.

Oooh! I want to try this some day. I’ve seen some amazing stuff done by finger painters. Definitely not just for primary school anymore!

Why do I feel that I need to wash my hands? 🙂 Fun.

Getting closer to the canvas is the idea of finger painting. Better than using a brush, Sue!

Looks like fun, Su, I often use my fingers when I paint.

🙂 I can see the appeal, watching the artists at work, but I’m not fond of the feeling of paint drying on my hands.

I loved finger painting and remember how excited I was when I got to do with my kids.
