August 25, 2011 by Anna Ranson

I loved some of these interesting ways to use paint and art materials creatively and for amazing effect!
Artful Adventures experimented with making beautiful landscapes with watercolour inks.
The Chocolate Muffin Tree made stunning art using oil pastels and baby oil!

Mama Pea Pod guest posted at our co-host’s site to show how to make amazing tie-dye with marker pens!
