Modern Art Adventures
Modern art is bold, experimental and not concerned with rules - in other words, perfect for children who love to draw outside the lines.
Explore the world of modern art with your child through the introduction to 18 favourite - and very different - works of art, from Monet's famous water-lilies to the Street artist Roa's towering birds. Taking these masterpieces as inspiration, Modern Art Adventures offers fun art projects in painting, drawing, printmaking, collage and mixed media.
Children will:
- Make a Pocket Mondrian
- Create a Cubist portrait in the style of Picasso
- Compose a paint drip picture after Pollock's Lavender Mist
- Create a bookmark based on Beardsley's illustrations
- Draw a Lichtenstein-style dot picture
- Design a reusable flower stencil inspired by Banksy's Flower
- And many more!
Experienced authors and educators, Pitamic and Laidlaw will encourage your budding artist to explore their creative abilities and have lots of fun along the way.
