Finger Painting with Jordan


Hi everyone. It’s Jordan this time for Family Saturdays at Home I’m showing you how to finger paint!

       

You will need: 
- A small amount of paint
- Paper 
- Pens
- You'll need to plan for messy fingers too!


After making different shapes and patterns with the paint, I waited for it to dry to draw them into animals!


Here I've created shapes out of paint and I'm waiting for it to dry! It shouldn't take too long if the paint is quite thin.


These are animals I've drawn! What will you make?
I also created a family portrait gallery!

Paper Pulp Dinosaur Chimeras

Image
  Hello and welcome to our last Family Saturdays at Home. Today we’re going to be making a paper pulp mixture and using it to sculpt dinosaur chimeras. You will need: - Shredded paper - Salt - Flour - A kettle - A hand blender If you don’t have a hand blender it might be a good idea to repeat the paper soaking process over a couple of days.  You can use torn up newspaper if you don’t have shredded paper. To make your paper pulp get a grown-up to cover the paper shreddings with boiling water and leave it overnight. After leaving it to soak for 24 hrs use the hand blender to break it up into a pulp. Make sure to get a grown-up to help you with this bit. Next, squeeze out all the liquid from your pulp so that it looks like this and add flour until you get a mouldable dough consistency. Design your dino chimera from parts of other dinosaurs. Lay out your mixture and then start to sculpt, just like clay! Leave to dry - I put cardboard under the bits that needed support and added cereal box

Momentary Sculptures with Abi

Image
Hello, I ’ m Abi and welcome to Aspex at Home! In this post, we’re creating momentary sculptures inspired by Peter Fischli and David Weiss. I hope you have lots of fun, and remember to try lots of different objects! You’ll need to collect some interesting objects from around the house, or you could try to find some on a walk to make nature-themed sculptures. Try out how different objects look together!     Place your objects in interesting ways and balance them - quickly snap a photo before they fall! You'll need to take the photographs quickly after you let go - so you might need an assistant to help you out.  Share your artwork with us by tagging @aspex_takepart and using the hashtag #AspexatHome.

Time Capsules

Image
Hi everyone! The theme of this post is connecting across generations, so we're going to be making time capsules!  A time capsule is a container storing a selection of objects that commemorate the current time, to be put away and discovered in the future. The idea with ours is to create a time capsule about our life as it is at the moment, and to hide it away for a really long time until we've grown up and can show future generations the treasures inside!
