pasta art

Today,we played with colored elbow pasta.I put a spoonful of alcohol and 6 drops of food coloring over a half of cup of pasta.As soon as it dried up,we started doing sculptures.

He said he's going to make roads.
Here's his work (below)

He added more pasta later.I love how he interpret his work,that it is a road.(It's not the product,it's the process)

I also did mine too...

umbrella

fish

heart

star

Then I let him trace the letter A

We did pasta stamping too.I bet it would look much better with other colored ink pad.I only have a black and blue ink pad.

And this is our finished products.

my son's work.I drew the stems

And these are mine below

I'm thinking the above picture is great for a mother's day card.With this one,I used a Sunny D bottle cap so to have a full print of the heart shaped pasta.

This would also make a great greeting card.

What do you think?
