Life hack from a daycare teacher: Soap added to already water soluble paint is great for kid playtime, too!!!

You can paint from either side of the window, but you gotta remember to mirror anything if you’re working on the inside.

(Including colors: if you want to do a face, for example, paint the features first then the skin tone. That way the features are visible on the outside.)

(Tip for letters from the inside: Print your words, cut out a roughy stencil, paint the basics so it’s legible outside, fill in the details to make it pretty!!!)

And yes, you can get as creative and detailed as you’re willing to commit to!

(Painting on the inside of the window also protects against damage from the elements, including rain/snow)

Hi! I know you're busy but I was wondering if you can explain how to decorate window glass using soap to make holiday scenes?

It's tempera paint (from the dollar store) with some liquid dish soap mixed in.

my only issue with the Rothko On Paper exhibit is the curators did not talk about paper

like the fact that these Rothkos are On Paper is significant enough to be included in the title. A lot of the plaques mentioned that Rothko thought very highly of his works On Paper (he would gift them to friends and display them in his own house, and made some commissioned pieces on paper too)

there definitely is an idear in museamy art that paper=practice=not as important and on the one hand it pisses me right off due to papercraft being my primary medium (i'm a generalist but if I had to pick just one I'd go with paper) but on the other hand I get it because paper is cheaper than canvas and Museams Are Full Of Canvasses From The Old Masters. See also: the Cezanne Drawing exhibit at the NYC MoMA in 2021, a lot of those were legit sketchbook/practice/unfinished pieces unlike the Rothko On Paper pieces which were all (except for four) finished pieces

I legitimately don't think this is from my bias as a papercraft or science person, I do think this is an oversight on the curators that they didn't talk about the paper. The plaques would say wove paper water color paper or just like not mention the type of paper. The paints were tempura or oil or water color or ink and all of those sit on top or soak into different kinds of paper in different ways

idk I just think that the material that the art is on is part of the art, it's more than just a holder for the art. and I think that's especially true for Rothko's technique of diluting and layering paints. There's a clear disconnect that the works being on paper is important enough to be part of the title of the exhibit but not important enough to be talked about within the exhibit.

the selection of the pieces was great, the order that the pieces were presented in was great, the quotes from Rothko and his personal history that was included on the plaques were great but like why even call it Rothko On Paper if you're only going to talk only about Rothko and nothing about paper. Like ok he thought there was no hierarchy between paper and canvas but WHY? what are the differences between paper and canvas?

Just something I “painted” at work that virtually no one will notice.

I wanted to practice color blending today, so I made a grid on my paper with masking tape and got out my tempura paint (the cheap kid paint you get at Walmart). Note for future self: remember to stick the tape to your shirt first next time so it doesn't rip the paper!
