Tackling Still Life for Children Part 1 – Continuous Line Drawing

By Paula Briggs

TTS Art kindly supplied our Drawing Workshop for Children aged 6 to 10 with canvases, acrylic paints and mark making tools. Rather than embark straight onto painting with acrylic I wanted to make sure the children had a familarity with their subject matter by making a few sketches first.
