Meet the Artists 2
Another 20 weeks of discovering Artists and exploring their lives and artworks!
Like the original Meet the Artist course each week contains;
- Artist's biography
- Art Print (where copyright allows)
- Artist quote of the week
- Discussion starter questions
- Art Project based around the technique introduced that week
- "Rabbit Hole" ideas for further exploration
- Further resources and book list
Each week you’ll be introduced to an artist and an accompanying art style, technique or medium to try out for yourself. There will be some biographical information to you read, some discussion starter questions, an art project for you to try and ideas for further exploration. Where copyright permits I’ve included an art print for you to put up each week. There will be suggestions of books for you to try if you’d like to find out more about the artist as well as ideas for trips and other experiences.
