Painted Rocks




Here are a few ideas for painting rocks. They can be simple or more detailed. You can paint an Easter egg with Polka Dots or a watermelon slice or a flower blossom. How about painting a strawberry or a rocket. It all depends on the shape of the rock and what you see in it.

The first thing to do is look at the shape of the rock and imagine what it can be. It might just jump out at you when you look at it. A couple of these rocks are shaped like hearts. One day when Grandpa Wes and I were looking for rocks, I looked only for smooth rocks that looked like hearts. I founds quite a few. You can paint on smooth or bumpy rocks, just make sure they are clean and dry when you start.

So look at the rock, picture what it is and paint away.
