LOLA Beautiful Bugs Art Box
Love them or hate them, creepy crawlies are everywhere! In these creative projects, inspired by artists old and new, we look at how to create a wall of recycled bugs with the artist Jennifer Angus, painted butterflies with Damien Hirst, snail drawings and shapes with Henri Matisse, spider collages with Louise Bourgeois, dragonfly bug jars with Maria Sibylla Merian, cricket patterns with Émile-Alain Séguy and, finally, moth wings you can wear with Sarah Gillespie!
Includes:
Ants, bees, slugs and worms – these tiny creatures all have a role to play in our environment. They work away quietly, breaking down leaves, churning up soil and pollinating plants. There are 40,000 different species in Britain alone.
A booklet introducing the theme, with information about artists, art styles and techniques.
Clear instructions on seven art projects, appropriate for children of any age (4+ years), with tips to tailor each project for younger children.
Includes LoLA book recommendations for further reading.
Plenty of quality art materials for your child.
