Canvas Art Project Ideas For Children

Canvas Art Project Ideas For Children

Ah! The lazy days of summer holidays. A time to relax, rejuvenate and rejoice before the craziness of another school year falls upon us. Unfortunately, the peace and ease that summer holidays offer is often short-lived, soon to be replaced with the all-too-familiar dialouges, “I’m BORED…I don’t have ANYTHING to do!” Now what could a mom to do in order to keep that battle cry to a minimum? The answer is simple and offers a multitude of options and complete satisfaction for the children- Canvas art. With a quick trip to your nearby local craft store you will have everything you need to keep your kids’ minds occupied.

All large craft stores – and a few of the discount departmental stores – sell pre-stretched canvas in a ranging variety of sizes and shapes. The easiest one for little hands to manage is a square piece, usually 12 x 12 inches. Get a hold on  a few of those, and some of the individual supplies listed below, and you are ready to get started on the projects.

Scrapbook on The  Wall

Before you go to the craft store, let your child look through some of your old photographs and choose a few to turn into a scrapbook wall hanging artwork (a possible theme could be a family vacation or special holiday). Paint the canvas in your favorite colour of acrylic craft paint and allow it to dry for a few hours. From there you can make it as simple or decorative as you (and your budding artist) wish, attaching scrapbook embellishments to their hearts desire. You can even try stenciling, stamping, or hand lettering in a title. Glue all the pieces in place with craft clue and viola! A scrapbook page your child can hang on his or her bedroom wall is prepared!

Celebrity Collage

If you are the lucky parent of a “teen age” girl you are most likely very familiar with the fan magazines filled with pictures and articles of her favorite celebrities. When the stacks of magazines begin to take over the house, this project offers a great way to get rid of the clutter while letting your daughter save pictures of her “stars”. Again, paint the canvas with acrylic paint and allow it to dry. In the mean time, have your daughter cut out pictures of her favorite celebrities. Use decorative-edged scissors if you want to; if not, a twist of the wrist does nicely! The pictures are then to be glued onto the canvas, overlapping each other as the artist chooses. Decorate further with glitter, jewels, stickers – the choices are endless! Finish with decoupage glue in order to securely seal your project. Your daughter can create a collage of all her hot favourites, or individual tributes for each one. They will last longer than individually cut out pictures, and will look much cooler on her wall!

Bas Relief Painting

Ancient Greeks, Romans and Egyptians were just a few societies to experiment with this “low relief” form of 3-D painting, and now your budding artist may do it too! Simply paint the canvas in your  favourite colour, and then glue lightweight 3-Dimensional objects onto the canvas. One option that lends itself very easily to this project is a bas relief solar system. Use a sponge, “stamp” paint on the canvas in different shades of blue, and allow it to dry. Cut foam balls of various sizes in half, and colour them to resemble planets and moons. When they dry, glue them onto your canvas. Your child will have the universe sticking on his wall. Other objects work well with this type of project, you can include letters (for a monogram piece of art) and small wooden cut outs too. Allow your child to create a bas relief masterpiece that is a reflection of his persona!

Simply Paint It

Of course, there’s nothing wrong with just grabbing a canvas and some craft paint (or even finger paint) and just going for it! In this project your child can be as abstract as Picasso or as deliberate as Seurat! For the smaller artists in your family, finger paints can also work well. Add some sponge shapes for extra, easy, fun outlook. The resulting masterpieces from this option can be a memorable piece of artwork for you to hang on your own wall!

The options mentioned here are just the beginnings of all the possibilities that rise from a simple, stretched canvas. Try these or create your own, help the idle minds of your kids run into an imaginary world that is not only creative but also innovative. And see how all the whining and crying of your kids come to an end.
