January Artist - Hundertwasser

That moment when you are happily going along and suddenly WOW, you discover an artist that blows your mind. One that has been there your whole life and only NOW you have discovered them.

Hundertwasser has done that this month.

Beautiful architecture.

We explored hot and cold colours to create the first step of our own Hundertwasser art pieces.

 

Who couldn't love an artist who had amazing vision and changed his name to

Friedensreich Regentagand Dunkelbunt Hundertwasser

"Peace-Kingdom Rainy Day Darkly Multi-coloured Hundred-Water"

Just need to decide on a new name for myself - What about Indigo Igo?

What would your name be?

Artists teaching the Arts - Creative Collaboration Em and I!

Me and Em started our Saturday creativity workshops together back in 2010, as we are both really passionate about creative learning.

I am really pleased that the very talented Emmaline Shaw is now able to bring her own creative skills to schools, through our workshops, as a drama and creative literacy specialist.   

So now we offer drama and creative literacy to our arts workshops.

Just so you know *We are excitedly jumping about shouting in the voice of Miranda's mum "Such fun!"*

We want children to be as excited about the arts as we are.  We want them to be inspired to start creating art, poetry or drama for themselves.

So we develop bespoke workshops, we can look at your curriculum and create some great art and drama or creative writing, which might link to that term's subject learning in some way.  Or not... it doesn't have to, it could just be for creativity's sake.
