About this event
This February half-term, children are invited to fold, explore and create at the St Ives School of Painting.
Children will learn how to make their own origami paper butterflies, and bring them to life with colour, pattern and texture.
Through looking closely and responding to the natural forms, children will explore mark-making and take rubbings of natural textures. These creative explorations will be used to decorate and transform their origami butterflies into unique artworks.
To complete their butterflies, each child will add a personal message of hope and care for the environment we live in, creating a thoughtful response to the natural world we share.
A joyful, creative workshop full of making, experimenting and imagination – perfect for curious hands and creative minds.
For children aged 7-13, these workshops are like no other, where children get to work in our studio overlooking the sea and use the same high quality art materials as our adult courses. They are taught by experienced artist tutors and leave feeling inspired with beautiful artwork. An ideal opportunity for your children to channel their inner artist, in our historic studios, whilst you relax.
