Color Mixing Handprints
Two painted hands clap together to mix primary colors into something new. Messy in the best way.
How to do it
- 1
Draw a plus sign and an equals sign on a sheet of paper.
- 2
Paint one hand a primary color and the other hand a different primary color.
- 3
Press the painted hands together, then stamp the mixed color onto the paper after the equals sign.
