At Paint 11+, the children are introduced to art in many forms, from observational drawing and painting to abstract approaches, and applied arts such as illustration and design. 

 

Through a range of subject matter and materials, he classes cover technical skills such as value, perspective, mark making, colour mixing and painting handling.

 

The children are introduced to the work of a variety of artists - famous and local, historic and contemporary - and are encouraged to articulate their responses to it. By looking at others artists' work,  we learn that rules are made to be challenged, and that the most celebrated artists are those who have fully embraced their own unique style. 

 

The focus is on enjoying the process of creating art rather than pursuing 'perfection' promoting a sociable and supportive atmosphere in which the children are able to relax, experiment and explore.
