I'm making a canvas with the grandchildren as a birthday present for their Mum. I was planing to get them to make butterflies with their hand prints. What is the best paint to use?

pends ,for detail use a roller on a slab ,press hand into paint ,press hand on primed and smooth canvas

a fairly thick acrylic paint will work well and wash off skin (tubes in bargain art and book outlets etc are ok for such things )

etching ink is ace but a bit h n s heavy
