It's Raining, It's... Spraying
We tried out spray bottles at the Art Area this week! It was super fun when it worked. One problem to troubleshoot for the future is finding smaller bottles. These were spray bottles from the cleaning section at Walmart, which meant that they were inexpensive to purchase but also that they are too large for the school friends' hands because they are designed for adults. After squeezing the trigger, the children's hands weren't large enough to fully release the trigger and it would get stuck. But the spray was exciting and made interesting art! We figured out that if you spray close to the paper, the color was concentrated and dripped more, but was darker. If you sprayed from farther away, the color was lighter and looked more like clouds.
