SNEAK PEEK- Capture your child's drawing with glue batiking

I have so many projects "in the works" for some reason or another, that I thought I'd show one of them. 

Glue batiking has been really popular in my "kid art studio." I had the kids draw with pencil on canvas material. Then I traced their drawings with clear glue. And recently they painted on top of their drawings.

I will be showing the step-by-step process in a later post. Right now they are drying and waiting to be washed so that the glue will rub away and we will see a crisp(somewhat) outline of their drawing from underneath...

You can see the shimmery glue outlines on the paintings if you look really close ...

 Can't wait to see them stretched on a frame!

  1. I LOVE this idea, and want to do it for my kids room! It would look awesome to have some bright kid canvases hanging up. Love seeing all your doing!
