AFTER SCHOOL BASIC PAINTING AT TAHATAI SCHOOL
A creative space for Tahatai School children from Year 2+ to learn and enjoy the basics of acrylic painting.
Through the practice, students will explore colour, composition, and self-expression—each at their own pace.
The course includes 8 sessions, with a small group of up to 8 students. This allows for individual attention and the opportunity to learn from one another in a supportive environment.
CONTENTS: Colour mixing, Abstract Painting, Great Artists, Elements of Nature, Creativity
WHEN: Sessions are from 2.45pm to 4.00pm
COST: $220 per term / ALL MATERIALS ARE SUPPLIED (canvas, acrylic paints, brushes, etc…)
Children can bring their own snack / afternoon tea.
They can wear one of the t-shirts I have available to protect their uniform.
