Funny cups painted with tempera! This is a good exercise to learn how many textures you can paint with tempera colours, and how many ways there are to use use a paintbrush. Enjoy!

Wow! Si può fare anche la tazza a tema, per esempio la tazza di Van Gogh, la tazza di Mirò, la tazza di Monet!!!!
giusto!! questo è un lavoro che ho fatto con le prime per imparare a usare la tempera, però potrebbe essere una bellissima idea per le terze!! grazie del commento Palmy1
Love the colors and patterns!
Love these… they make me think of Matisse.
Awesome… they make me think of Matisse
Beautiful work! I need to use tempera more 🙂
Love it!
The black outline changes the work so much. They almost look like prints. Beautiful.
You always have the best projects! love these.
thank you, the student enjoy so much this work with tempera colours!!
The black line is very useful!!! it can also cover the defect… :-))
You could even think to do Mirò’s cup, or Van Gogh’s cup… why not?

Hi Maggie! Thanks for your comment. It’s very easy to paint these cups with children, and fun of course! Try it and show mw your result! I’m always curious!!
What grade level did you do this project with?
Hi Em! The children are 11 years old, in Italy is the first class of middle school, in Uk is grade 6 and 7, and I think in Usa as well? Are you from Usa? May you help me to understand the grade of a 11-years student? Thanks em , we keep in touch! 🙂
