This is inspired by the adorable book Hooray for Fish! by author illustrator Lucy Cousins. This is a fabulous book for a painting project! After getting inspired by reading the book and looking closely at her gorgeous illustrations, we started painting our fish with black tempera on blue construction. We started by painting a large eye and drawing our fish body behind it.
Day 2, we started carefully painting in the fish with many tempera paint colors. I added a very little bit of white to each color to make the paint a bit more opaque. This brightens up the colors on the blue construction paper.
Day 3 - We painted some patterns on the solid areas. They turned out FABULOUS!
