Kids School Holidays Creative Nature Art Workshop

Step into a world of creativity, colour, texture, and imagination in this hands-on 90 minute art workshop.

Participants will explore the basics of watercolour painting through playful experimentation and guided activities, learning simple techniques such as colour blending, layering, texture creation, and brush control. Using real leaves as inspiration, they’ll create their own beautiful leaf artwork before experimenting with printmaking techniques to explore patterns and textures from nature. Children will also decorate a special frame for their leaf drawing using stamps, prints, and mixed materials to make their artwork uniquely their own.

The workshop continues with imaginative landscape painting, where children will use different watercolour techniques to create magical worlds filled with forests, skies, mountains, and hidden places for mythical creatures to live.

To finish, children will bring their imaginations to life by creating their own magical creature sculpture using wire, fabric, and mixed materials. From tiny forest guardians to whimsical flying creatures, every child will leave with something completely unique.

This workshop encourages creativity, curiosity, confidence, and joyful making in a relaxed and welcoming environment. No experience needed and all materials are provided.

What they leave with:

• Completed watercolour painting of a leaf with decorated frame
• Landscape watercolour painting 
• Sculpture of an imaginary creature made using wire, fabric and mixed materials
• A nature based exercises journal for them to continue exploring during the holidays
