vacation thank-you

Today, I painted another small fraction of the outrageous amount of Hawaiian art I have done-a vacation thank-you. A vacation thank-you thanks someone who hosted you on a vacation, with a picture painted on the front of something that the place you went to is known for. I invented that, of course. Here is what you need:

blank white card                                                 paints
pencil                                                                

Sketch what you are going to paint on another piece of paper if you want to be extra prepared. Then, start painting! I did a volcano, because that's how Hawaii was formed, But if you went to Florida, you should probably do something like an orange, or maybe a boot! Don't forget the message on the inside, though.

Other Ideas
Remember, an easy way to add glitter to a painting is to just shake it on while the paint is still drying. If you want to make one thing in the painting stand out, you can add glitter to just that spot. If I had done that, I would probably have done it on the lava, but yours will probably be different. If Leonardo got to decide all the details of his artwork, you can, too!
