Fancy Flowers - Art for Kids and Playful Adults

Il you  are looking for a meaningful creative activity for your child, or spending valuable playful and creative time with your kid around an artistic project, this class might be exactly what you are looking for.

"Fancy Flowers" is an art project for kids and playful adults.

In the first part of this class, I will guide you through 4 experiments for creating interesting textures using watercolours and simple home found items (such as kitchen salt, plastic wrap and a candle)

In the second part of the class, we will use our beautiful textured papers to create our own imaginary flowers. We will play with collage, composition, drawing and colouring.  This part is a creative playground for your artistic imagination.

While playing and experimenting, your child will learn and develop important artistic skills, such as

- creating textures using watercolours,

- organizing lines, shapes, and colours together

- elaborating appealing visual compositions,

- developing creative thinking

- enhancing self-expression

- building confidence while making creative choices

Two downloadable ressources:

- an inspiration sheet for drawing and cutting simple shapes. Those can be used by your child as a starting point for creating a variety of flowers.

- a memory sheet or a visual summary of the 4 watercolour texture experiments from this class
