For our most recent blotto art project, we decided to use fall colors. (This post contains affiliate links.)

What can you do with your finished blotto art?

After your artwork is dry, there’s all kinds of things you can use it for!

 

let your paintings dry

 

– Hang your finished blotto art around your home or classroom to decorate for fall.

– Use some markers to add details to your artwork. Turn the blotto into a design or creature.

– Cut out your blottos. Use them as fall leaves to decorate a paper tree or string them up over your fireplace!
