Art Starts with Louisville Visual Art – Christin Brown Teaches Us How to Make Puffy Chalk Paint!

Make your own puffy paint chalk with items from around your home with LVA Artist, Christin Brown!

Art Starts with Louisville Visual Art videos bring imaginative art-making home while we wait to meet together in person again.

We’d love to see your artworks displayed in windows as we take our daily walks – and maintain healthy distance. If you’ve made artwork inspired by our Art Starts Videos, share with us at artstartshere@louisvillevisualart.org or tag #ArtStartsAtLVA on social media. Visit our website every Saturday morning for a new lesson. You can return to try them again as much as you like!

Now you can make a donation to our Art Starts Fundraiser via the button on the Art Starts Video page. We’re raising $2,500 to produce 10 Art Starts Videos, each of which employs a local LVA-Affiliated artist. Our family of artists need this work more than ever in these uncertain days, so if you’ve enjoyed an Art Starts lesson – or just want to make sure others can – please consider a gift. Every dollar helps!

For June 13th, Christin Brown teaches us how to make our own puffy chalk paint!
Supplies needed:

Flour
