A refreshing source of ideas for creating fine art with children, Art Lab for Kids encourages the artist's own voice, marks, and style.
This fun and creative book features 52 fine art projects set into weekly lessons, beginning with drawing, moving through painting and printmaking, and then building to paper collage and mixed media.
The labs can be used as singular projects or to build up to a year of hands-on fine art experiences. The lessons in this book are open-ended to be explored over and overβwith different results each time!
Colourful photos illustrate how different people using the same lesson will yield different results, exemplifying the way the lesson brings out each artist's personal style.
Art Lab for Kids is the perfect book for creative families, friends, and community groups and works as lesson plans for both experienced and new art teachers.
Children of all ages and experience levels can be guided by adults and will enjoy these engaging exercises.
