Artist — solve it right on the sheet.
Trace ARTIST, match the artist to the paintbrush, the palette and the easel, circle the art supplies, count the paintbrushes and draw a picture that is all your own.
Your sheet is ready.
Pick a color or the eraser, then trace, match, circle, count and draw straight on the sheet with your finger, a stylus or the mouse. Press Save my work when you are proud — that is what marks this activity cleared for your child.
What this worksheet teaches.
What the child is learning: What an artist does all day, what the palette and easel are for, and which tools make pictures happen — plus how to write the word ARTIST.
Knowledge to have ready: An artist makes pictures and sculptures from ideas: the paintbrush carries the color, the palette holds every color side by side, and the easel stands the canvas up tall. Pencils, markers, glue and scissors are artists’ helpers too — the whole grid is on the artist’s side!
Why this activity matters: Every child is already an artist; this sheet simply names the tools and hands over the permission. The all-friendly grid builds sorting confidence, and the final draw box is deliberately empty — the sheet ends by asking your child to be the artist.

What to say before you start: "This is an artist — the maker of beautiful pictures. Trace the name, then connect the paintbrush, the palette and the easel. Now the six pictures: every one is an art supply! Circle them all. Count the paintbrushes slowly, and then the big box is yours — draw whatever YOU love."
What to look for on the sheet: Find the palette and count the colors sitting on it. In the grid, name each supply and ask what it makes: marks, lines, sticking or snipping. In the draw box, stay quiet and nearby; when it is done, ask what is happening in the picture rather than what it is.
Questions to ask along the way: "What does the artist hold on the palette?" "Which supplies did you circle — which have YOU used?" "Where does an artist get ideas?" "Tell me about your drawing — what is happening in it?"
Helpful hints without giving it away: No tricks in this grid — pencils, markers, glue and scissors are all studio friends, so circle every one with confidence. For the big draw box there is no wrong answer: start with one line and see where it walks.
Parent tips: Display the finished drawing like a real gallery — a fridge frame and a title card written by the artist. Name real artists your child knows: the aunt who paints, the illustrator inside a favorite book. Art is a job made of play.
Understanding check: Ask: "Who makes pictures for a living? Name two art supplies from the grid. How many paintbrushes?" The artist, two supplies, the count = the sheet landed.
Real-life practice: Set up a two-minute studio tonight: paper, two colors, one brush — and let your child be the artist while you are the assistant who rinses the brushes. Ask for the picture’s story, not its accuracy.
