This activity was inspired by Vincent Van Gogh's painting "A Starry Night." I was excited to get in and be able to use our fingers to paint. The techniques we learned on how to create different textures was interesting to me. I didn't think I could get the painting I got by using my fingers. My home state of Washington inspired my finger painting. I painted the mountains, green hills, blue bay and sunsets I see when I am back home.
For an Extension activity, I would have the students create another finger painting picture. This time I would have the students tell a story through their painting. This would allow creativity and let the students be unique and tell a story in which they come up with. I would have the students share their story.
