'Happy Art' - Creative Workshop for Children

Follow in the footsteps of an artistic genius to produce a masterpiece of your own.

Following on from our hugely successful Summer workshop last year inspired by the work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh, in this session we will focus on the unique creativity of contemporary Brazilian artist, Romero Britto, using his bold, modern and colourful art as our inspiration.
Romero Britto is an artist, painter, serigrapher, and sculptor who combines elements of cubism, pop art, and graffiti painting in his work, using vibrant colours and striking patterns as a visual expression of hope, dreams, and happiness.
Using acrylic paint markers, we will encapsulate the spirit of Britto's work by recreating some of his famous designs on paper and then on glass: the final aim of the workshop being to produce a decorative tealight holder.*
*Suggested use, although you can use it for whatever you like or give as a gift!
All materials, including a battery operated tealight, included, as well as light refreshments.
Ideal for ages 8-12.
