Art in Stories and Pictures Winter Session

This class is based on the whimsical nature of children’s picture books, integrated with a variety of mixed media art. The stories and illustrations of Eric Carle (The Very Hungry Caterpillar) and Peter Reynolds (The Dot) will be used as students’ inspiration to learn about colours, shapes, and lines. Students will work with a variety of mediums and materials such as acrylic paint, watercolour, pastels, ink, and charcoal in order to create their own stories and accompanying illustrations. The class includes trips to the Centre’s onsite galleries to learn through interacting with the artwork in the current exhibitions. The session will end with an art show where students are invited to share their creativity and pieces with their families.
