Recently we have bought a great art book for kids: Discovering Great Artists by MaryAnn F. Kohl, Kim Solga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first lesson is about the painter Giotto din Bondone 1266-1337 wikipedia<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

At that time, paints were made from combinations of egg yolks, clay, minerals, insects – to have color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have tried this technique and the results were interesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Egg Painting – Giotto style<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

How to make the paint:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. separate the yellow egg yoke from the rest of the egg into a small cup<\/li>
  2. mix with 2 teaspoons of water until the mixture is yellow<\/li>
  3. you can use food colouring – separate the egg yolk into several cups and add different colours to each cup<\/li>
  4. mix until the colour spreads<\/li>
  5. have a plastic wrap or tray to create small patches of new colours by mixing the base ones<\/li>
  6. paint and dry the painting<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
