I love working with children as the enthusiasm is so catching – here we are looking at the subject of perspective in our own invented city complete with converging highways using oil pastels, water soluble pencils and coloured ink.

Summer Art Club begins next week!

Beginning next Monday, three weeks of fun and creative discovery using paint, pastel, papier mache, sanguine, shells, charcoal, tissue papers, beads, inks, water soluble pencils ……

It’s not all about being able to draw…..

I like this definition of creativity: to live is to have problems and to solve problems is to grow creatively.
Creativity is all about divergent thinking as opposed to convergent thinking (one solution to a problem). So, taking some tape, a pair of scissors and some string what can you construct?
