Aw, just the ticket for the long summer holidays but sadly not out until the 7th September. BUT a good way of beating the 'Back to school" doldrums for creative kids, with a new range of fantastic activity books from top creative Marion Deuchars.
Marion's tutorial and art books are always brilliant and we started off by taking a look at "Let's make some Great Art: Animals" which was very much my daughter's cup of tea, being mildly obsessed with animals of all shapes and sizes.
Learn how to draw, paint, collage and create a ton of brilliant animal-based art with easy to follow guides and lots of encouragement to get straight into drawing directly in the book (something we're always a little nervous of, but don't worry, this book positively begs you to do so but just don't get any ideas about doing that to your other books, OK kids?)
Tons of fun and some brilliant results made so easily that you'll feel like a "proper" artist!
"Let's Make Some Great Art: Animals" by Marion Deuchars is published by Hachette on 7th September 2020.
Also out on 7th September is "Let's Make some Great Art: Patterns"...
Marion encourages you to let your mind wander by creating some truly awesome patterns and doodles with whatever art materials you have to hand.
Patterns appear all around us, in our lives, in nature, everywhere! So let's draw up a storm with some esoteric mesmeric designs that can be used for all sorts of things from purely decorative forms of art, to decorating your school books, project folders or even your top secret diary!
Marion's enthusiasm and effervescence really shine through in this book, and anyone with any artistic skills, whether beginner or experienced, will find an activity in this book to suit.
Brilliant stuff!
"Let's Make some Great Art: Patterns" by Marion Deuchars will be released on 7th September 2020, published by Hachette.
