Watch Maddie below to help you with some ideas. Don’t forget to post your pictures to us. I will make one this week and post a picture too.

 

ART PROJECT

The country is being encouraged  to turn their front windows into a gallery as part of a nationwide project to create a “magical patchwork of creativity”. Remember how we drew and painted rainbows in the first lock down ? This time you can be more creative .

The Great Big Art Exhibition was launched  last  week .

This week the theme is animals and people are encouraged to make their artworks out of materials  they have at home. The results – be they paintings, sculptures or pictures – are to be placed on a front porch, balcony or window. Why don’t you draw your favourite animal  and put up a picture in your window like the family below . We would love to see them.

Watch the videos for some more ideas .

 

So let’s get arty this week!! Let’s wake up our brains to creativity!
