Josephine Seblon Mini Artists : 20 projects inspired by the great artists Paperback

Twenty art projects inspired by famous artworks for budding mini artists aged 36 years. The benefits of art to young children are well known. Art stimulates curiosity, creativity and the imagination. It also cultivates wellbeing, but being creative with young children can feel surprisingly daunting and this is where Mini Artists comes in. The twenty projects in Mini Artists are designed to engage children with art through making. Mini artists will discover drip painting with Jackson Pollock, carve soap sculptures with Barbara Hepworth, and create their own obliteration room with Yayoi Kusama. Theyll also travel through time and explore art from different periods, from cave painting to Medieval stainedglass, and Chinese ink painting to washable graffiti inspired by JeanMichel Basquiat. Each project requires minimal setup so the maximum amount of time is spent creating together, and the stepbystep instructions show photographs of the projects in progress so they can be followed at a glance. The projects use simple materials, from clay to ink to paint. Being grounded in art history, Mini Artists features a range of interesting art techniques that are ideal for teaching new motor skills. | Josephine Seblon Mini Artists : 20 projects inspired by the great artists Paperback
