It is a rainy day and so my challenge for you is to create rain pictures.

What you will need:
Paper or cardboard (Watercolour paper works well)
Powder paint or coloured spices like Turmeric and chilli powder
Rain

What to do:
Place the paper or card outside while it is raining or before it starts.
Sprinkle your paper with powder paint or spices.
Leave the rain to wet the paper.
Shake off any excess colours.
Then leave the picture to dry.
Come back and see what picture the rain has made.

You can look for patterns in your picture.
You can join the dots made by the rain.
You can add to your picture or even put it out again in the rain with a different layer of colours.

Don’t forget to post any pictures you have made on Twitter #NatureDays @DawnNaturedays or on the Nature Days facebook page. Or email me at naturedays@reynoldston.com
