Painting Acrylic: Double Heart Canvas

In this one-time class, students will be painting two different acrylic paintings. One painting will be done by using Q-tips and the other with a paint brush. This will be a fun and interactive class full of creativity. I will paint along with the students giving step by step instructions, but I also love when students use their own creativity and ideas. 
No painting experience is needed. We will start by using two 12x12 canvases. We will create our stencil out of simple contact paper that we will then attach to each canvas. Students will be amazed at how beautiful their paintings will turn out.
