The Art Family was first created for a library art workshop to introduce young children to basic lines and colours using fun examples and to promote creativity. The six family members each represent a different style of line, Smooth, Wobbly, Dash, Spiky, Curly and Dot. Spiky likes to paint big dinosaurs and small hedgehogs. They each have their own favourite things to create. Introducing the magic primary colours, clear illustrations show how purple, green and orange can be made. The Art Family collaborate to create a series of paintings, ranging from the seaside to butterflies, mountains and woolly jumpers. Once the lines and colours have been mastered, there are suggested ideas to create Art Family Pets and Houses along with a range of activities. Created for children of 5 - 7 yrs. with adult guidance, it is also suitable for 7 - 9 yrs. to promote creative art ideas. An endless range of new Art Family members can be created with one specific style or by mixing different lines. The Art Family are full of fun and easy for children to relate to.
