Halloween Process Art Spider Web Paintings

We first tried painting with dough cutters last year when we made our turkey paintings. Because dough cutters make a nice straight line I thought it would be fun to experiment with them to make spider web paintings during our spider theme. This is a quick and easy activity you can set up in five minutes or less, so it’s perfect for incorporating some seasonal art into a busy schedule.

All you’ll need is paper, black paint, a dough cutter (try different sizes and texture designs if you have them), and a spider. Our spider is from a plastic ring. We just cut the ring off of it so we could attach it to our painting.

Painting with Dough Cutters-Halloween Art

Place the black paint in a shallow or flat dish so kids can roll the dough cutter through the paint and then roll it onto the paper. If  your child finds this part challenging, another alternative is to place some paint directly on the paper and let your child roll back and forth through it. This would be a great modification for toddlers.

There are no correct ways to make process art. Just encourage kids to use the materials however they’d like. Your spider webs will all look different, and that’s great.

Once your child is done painting let the spider web paintings dry. Then let your child choose a spot to attach your spider using glue, and you’re finished!
