In this gentle and creative painting workshop, children will work from a beautiful still life of native wildflowers arranged in vases, focusing on observation, colour and painting techniques. Led by artist Katie White, this session encourages young artists to slow down, look closely and build confidence with acrylic painting.
Children will create two still life paintings, learning how to translate what they see onto paper while exploring brushwork, composition and colour mixing. All wildflowers used in this workshop are collected under appropriate licences.
