Rock Painting for Kids - Lin Wellford
I wanted a pet fish, but Mom said I had to wait until I was old enough to remember to feed it. At the creek I saw a rock that gave me an idea. Why not make a rock fish? A rock fish doesn’t mind if I never feed him! Here’s how I made mine.
Make a Fishbowl
Put gravel or marbles in the bottom of a fishbowl and add water, a plastic plant, and your painted fish (painted with outdoor acrylic paint). Prop up your fish with a smaller rock. Paint other rocks to add to the scene.
What You’ll Need
Rock.
Pencil
Palette or paper plate
Paint of your choice*
Paintbrushes
Black marker (optional)
Glitter paint or white glue and glitter** (optional)
*If you aren’t planning to put your fish in a bowl of water, you can use any Kind of paint. If you are, use outdoor acrylic paint.
**White glue and glitter isn’t waterproof.
Find a fish-shaped rock
Choose a smooth, flat rock that has a fishy
shape. Pictures of real fish can give you ideas. When you find a rock you like, scrub it clean.
Draw the fish
Use a pencil to draw the head with a curved line and give the fish a round eye. At the other end, draw a fan-shaped tail and draw triangles above and below the tail.
You can use these fish as guides for drawing your fish. Or you can enlarge them on a copier and trace one onto your rock with carbon paper.
