Ee Egg Tempera
Today we made paint out of egg yolks and pigment, known as egg tempera. Egg tempera is one of the oldest mediums of painting said to date back to prehistoric times. The kids separated their own eggs, and mixed their own pigment. We got some rich colors, and made some great work that will be displayed at the Spring Salon. My dog totally ate one of the paintings while they were drying. Sorry about that, it will for sure get redone.
