How To Paint A Watermelon

We received this awesome art project idea from one of our super cool art friends. We loved her idea so much we had to do it too.

How to paint a watermelon is a great activity for any artist during summertime, but especially works well for younger artists. We only used three colors and about 5 steps!

Materials Used

  • Paint (tempera)
  • Paper (mixed media)
  • Paint brush
  • Water
  • Paint tray
  • Paper towel
