#ClayAtHome Drawing with a Viewfinder
Free
A Zoom link will be sent out ahead of the workshops
#ClayAtHome is back!
Join artist Sarah Fraser and let her guide you and your little ones through some fun and playful drawing techniques. These workshops are all about using what you have at home to get creative and draw in different ways. It is aimed at families, particularly with younger children aged 7 – 11 who want to learn new creative skills at home.
We’ll be making a homemade viewfinder from toilet roll or piece of paper/card to see everyday objects in new ways. We will look at how things change when you look at them up close and far away and draw compositions from what we can see.
Getting ready for #ClayAtHome: Drawing with a Viewfinder
