Keep collections to yourself or inspire other shoppers! Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places. My days are filled with creating dog illustrations to portray just how comical dogs are and to hopefully produce greeting cards that make you and your friends smile in the process.

We also thought it might be fun to create an autumn tree with our autumn leaves. So my youngest created a simple tree shape using his dabbers and we cut out some of our dotty autumn leaves. The leaves look very effective when they are cut out! Are you looking for a painting activity with a difference? Why not try some "dotty art" like Shelly and her kids... Dotty Heart Print for Nursery or Children's Room | Available in a Range Of Colours | A5, A4 and A3 Print Instead of using a cotton bud, your child can dip the tip of their finger into the paints to create their dotty art. My son wanted to do some painting but he asked to do something a bit different from “normal painting”– which I must admit stumped me. "Painting that is not normal painting". I had to think about that one for a while! But it just so happens I was busy reading an Impressionist book so I thought ... what about painting using dots instead of brush strokes? I suggested using ear buds but both my kids opted for normal paint brushes. You just need to make sure the paint brush has a nice pointy head – we found our newer paint brushes worked better.

After the leaves she wanted to continue and decided to try a flower. Again colour was a big factor with her. She wanted to use purple, yellow and orange but after testing out the three colours together on a scrap piece of paper she decided that she did not like the purple and orange right next to each other. This has been one of the art points we are trying to work on now that she is a bit older; to first plan your colours before you just start applying them.

What makes Dotty Dog Art

She did comment that one of the challenges was trying to get the dots to look more consistent and she marvelled at how hard an impressionist painting must be to do, with all those dots combined together to create more detail like shadows and form.
