Set up an art station just like those found in preschools and kindergartens with this set of high-quality painting supplies to encourage creative expression in young artists. The set includes seven colors of washable tempera paint in 8-ounce bottles, in black, white, red, blue, yellow, purple, and green. No-spill paint pots with color-coordinated lids are also included, and the lids snap tightly shut so unused paint won't dry out. Six bristle brushes are included, as well as three foam brushes and two foam rollers. Everything stores away in a sturdy storage crate (which itself folds flat for storage). Early-childhood educators praise the creative value of painting for young children, and this set provides all the necessary materials except paper. --Marcie Bovetz, mother and former children's librarian

This featherweight, pliable modeling material can be used to make almost anything--doll furniture, Christmas ornaments, jewelry. You can roll it, squeeze it, or mold it. Each of the four sealed pouches contains 8 ounces of nontoxic modeling material, each in a different color--red, yellow, blue, and white (colors may stain). Braid colors together, or combine them to form new colors. Try a marbled look. A chart on the back of the lidded plastic container shows how to mix colors. You can press objects into the soft material, either to leave decorative or textural imprints or to become a part of your creation. Objects usually air dry within 24 hours--and so does the leftover material, so be sure to put it in an airtight container for safekeeping. Once you've opened a package it's best to use it all on the same day. When your creations have "set," they can be painted and decorated. --Louise Carter

Sometimes the creative impulse can't be restrained, as evidenced by the countless juvenile masterpieces created on living room walls. The Crayola Color Wonder Marker and Activity Tote will let the parents of little Picassos and O'Keefes breathe a little easier, knowing that the eight markers will only color on the special paper provided by Crayola. The 36-page activity book that comes inside the tough green 11-by-14-inch mesh carrying case has plenty of undersea coloring pictures and puzzles to keep kids happy, and plenty more is available. The markers really are amazing--they don't leave marks anywhere but on the unique paper, and they don't smell as toxic as other markers. --Rob Lightner

It looks like a rectangular lunch box made of yellow nylon cloth, but rip open the sturdy Velcro fastener and this cleverly designed art pack rolls out flat and becomes four zippable, see-through compartments for 50 felt-tipped pens. The first two compartments contain 28 simple stick pens in colors that cover the basics, but also include pink, gray, and several different shades each of purple, brown, and orange. The third compartment has eight stubbier, thicker markers. Best of all, the fourth compartment has a dozen "brush tip" pens so flexible they can make a line vary from very fine to almost a quarter-inch thick. A lot of color for your money. --Richard Farr

Painting

Drawing

Sculpture
|
|
|
Painting is the practice
of applying pigment suspended in a carrier
(or medium) and a binding agent (a glue)
to a surface (support) such as paper, canvas
or a wall.
|
|
|
Drawing is one of many
ways to making an image; it is the process
of making marks on a surface by applying
pressure from or moving a tool on the surface.
These marks may represent what the artist
sees when drawing, a remembered or imagined
scene or abstraction.
|
|
|
Sculpture is any three-dimensional
form created as an artistic expression.
Sculpture is primarily concerned with space:
occupying it, relating to it, and influencing
the perception of it.
