Overview
- Exploring three painting styles and fun projects might be just what you are looking for in your kid's school holidays. This Melbourne activity will bring some colour to their day as they explore watercolour, acrylic painting projects, as well as fluid art. These are fun and creative forms of art and is accessible to all ages.
Watercolour / Inky painting: Using watercolour paper as a base, we will use watercolour paint and possibly some inks to create magical effects and an abstract art form. The process of the paint and ink interacting with the water is fun and inspiring.
Acrylic Painting: We will start by practicing to blend paint on a small canvas using a paint brush and then add some textured paint for trees or flowers with a brush or palette knife.
Fluid Art: Children will be introduced to the wonder of fluid art where they can create beautiful, colourful pieces of artwork. We will do one fluid art painting on a 30 x 40 cm canvas.
NO painting experience is needed.
This class is for children 6 years to 14 years. Parents / carers may stay as observers or helpers, but this is not required, unless your child needs individualised support. (Please let us know if you want to stay as a helper in the checkout comments as we have limited places for additional non participants). If your child is not able to follow instruction or needs more support than 1 staff to 8 children can provide, then please discuss with Julie prior to booking.
Great art projects come out of every class but the style and activities may vary! No experience is needed and is completely beginner friendly for every kind of creative kid out there.
Experienced teacher Julie will support your kids through their vibrant journey of acrylic painting and pouring. Julie has a current Working with Children Check, Police Check and NDIS screening check. You can be at ease knowing your child/ren are in caring, professional and qualified hands.
Please Note:
Fluid art needs to lie flat to dry, so it cannot be taken home on the day. It can be picked up from the studio in one to three days’ time (The watercolour and acryclic painting can be taken home on the day).
Participants are provided with all supplies provided including non-toxic acrylic paint, water colour paint and ink, pouring medium, gloves, apron, cups, tools, small canvas, canvas magnets, painter's tape, and scissors.
Drinking water will be provided.
This 3 hour class will go over lunch time, we will have a short break for lunch - please bring your own (nut free) lunch and drinks (water supplied).
