Publisher's Synopsis
Imagine looking out a window and then creating a painting that captures all that's out there the color and action, even the mood, sounds, and smells. Art School enables children to do just that. Based on Mick Manning's highly acclaimed course at the Glasgow School of Art, the book shows readers how to use pencils, crayons, watercolors, and collage tools to create still-lifes, self-portraits, sculptures, masks, a book, and other fun, doable projects. It encourages children to think of art as an act of exploration of the senses, the world around them, and of their own creative potential.
