Discover 2 artists who create 2 very different landscape artworks: the forest and jungle layered paintings of French artist Henri Rousseau and the quirky surreal landscapes of Spanish artist Joan Miro. Experiment with ideas such as layering, composition and perspective and create your own works using mixed media, collage, painting and drawing techniques. Learn about 1 point perspective and create some simple pencil and watercolour drawings of a room, then create your own using these techniques. A great way for children to learn visual arts technique whilst having fun! Go home at the end of term with 3 beautiful unique landscape artworks.

RISK ASSESSMENTS

Each holiday venue has a current risk assessment document. Please contact our CEO Mandy if you would like a copy of this. All schools have risk assessments that can also be accessed, for our after school class users. Educators are aware of the risks at each venue and do everything they can to moderate the risks. Children are supervised at all times. and parents are contacted immediately if there is an incident with their child.

All of our educators are police vetted.

BEHAVIOURAL EXPECTATIONS

Our holiday art classes are designed for children who are interested in art and who are capable of focusing for 6 hours on a creative project (with breaks of course). Before booking, please ensure your child is able to focus all day and apply themselves to projects of this nature.

You will be contacted to pick up your child if your child is disengaged or behaving in a way that disrupts the class and the teacher. This is to ensure everyone gets the most out of their day and the environment is positive for all participants.A refund for the remaining hours will be issued.

DATA USE & PRIVACY We will periodically send you emails with relevant information eg. early access to new workshops, tips on how to bring creativity into your conversations with children etc. We will never share your details with a third party. You can unsubscribe at any time.

Cancel, and return to activity listings.
