- We discovered this special activity book years ago, and have spent many rainy afternoons curled up with it, exploring the creative prompts that fill its pages. A wonderful gift for the whole family, this book is a great way for young and old alike to explore untapped creativity while brushing up on a bit of art history.

- In this imaginative activity book, Marion Deuchars makes learning about art fun. Readers are introduced to more than thirty great artists, then encouraged to try out the techniques that lie behind their greatest works. Short and accessible facts about each artist's life and works are followed by creative projects that Marion has devised based on the artist's particular techniques.

- Play with photomontage like Hannah Höch, pattern in paint in the spirit of Klimt. Learn how Matisse mastered drawing with scissors, meet Miró the mark-maker. Experiment with ink-blotting just like Warhol. You’ll be painting like a great artist in next to no time.

- This is a newly-printed book, multiples available. See less
