Sometimes all it takes is a little hands-on playfulness to get children involved in art. So forget the brushes--this third entry in the My Very Favorite Art Book series puts its finger on what kids find fun. The colorful array of creative activities will have budding painters amazed at all the different ways they can use their fingers, hands, and even their feet to make both realistic and abstract pictures. It won't be long before proud youngsters produce galleries of blot masterpieces, dinosaurs, fingerprint people, animals, and crazy creatures. Plus, they'll learn some simple how-tos for mixing colors and making their own paints. And the text is kept to a minimum, so even pre-readers can follow along.

Jennifer Lipsey is a successful visual artist and arts instructor. Her artwork consists mainly of abstract mixed-media pantings which are displayed in galleries throughout the Southeastern U.S. and are part of permanent collections nationwide.
Gr. 1-3. "Anyone can finger paint!" declares Lipsey, whose text relays the joy of being messy on purpose and making art at the same time. Third in the My Very Favorite Art Book series, this volume is just as attractive and well organized as its predecessors. Following an introductory double-page spread that lists supplies and reminds kids to keep paint where paint belongs, Lipsey describes a variety of painting techniques that can be used to create intriguing designs--finger- and hand-printing, patterning, scraping and scratching, texturing, even painting with feet and palms. Pictures in a rainbow of brilliant colors accompany the instructions, supplying children with examples to copy and inspiration to extend what they have learned to make more pictures. Excellent for teachers, and, with oversight from adults, for kids themselves. Stephanie Zvirin
