Tulip Fork Painting Best for ages 5+
CLICK FOR MOBILE-FRIENDLY VERSION
Instructions: 1. Place a quarter-size amount of paint out of each tube onto your paper plate. 2. Dip your fork into the paint so that it covers the entire bottom of the fork’s prongs. 3. Press the fork onto the construction paper so it leaves a full imprint of the prongs of the fork. 4. Dip your fork again into the paint, focusing on the base of the fork. 5. Press the fork onto the construction paper so it leaves an imprint of the base of the fork. This will look like a tulip shape. 6. Use the remaining forks to dip into other colors and create more tulip shapes. 7. Set the paper aside to dry. Once it is dry, pick up the crayons and add the stems of the flowers. You can draw the flowers in a field or draw them in a vase. Your work of art is now complete!
