60 activities to unleash your inner artist

Learn important skills to help you become a better artist with this super-fun collection of art projects. Louise McMullen, founder of the children's craft blog, Messy Little Monster, brings her experience as both a teacher and a mother to ensure there's a project for every artist, whatever your interest, ability or age. Learn different techniques such as how to create new colors, how to use different types of paints and even how to paint like famous artists. There are small, detailed projects for indoors and large interactive projects where you can get messy outdoors. And you'll be inspired to think outside the box, like using shaving cream and paint to make a marbling effect, or dish soap and toothpicks to make scratch art. With 60 unique and totally fun projects, plus plenty of ideas to change things up, you'll be inspired to paint all day every day!
