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.
