marble art

This week we removed our robots and painted over their square background. 

While the white paint dried we cut strips of cardboard from soda can boxes.

We taped the strips around the outside edges of our dry canvas.

We put on our paint clothes, selected our pant colors, 

gathered our marbles :) and canvas, and headed outside. 

You squirted paint onto the canvas.

We piled marbles on the canvas, lifted it off the ground,

angled it every which way, and watched those marbles go!  

Of course, you got your hands into it.

And, voila!

Our art canvas hangs, again, in our living room...

until we get another crazy painting idea!
