Drawing and Making Flowers

By Sheila Ceccarelli and Paula Briggs

Beautifully structured resource which shares how drawing is used to enable children to familarise themselves with flower anatomy, and then children are given the opportunity to develop their observations and ideas in three dimensions by making flowers with paper and wire.

Thank you to Markel (UK) Limited for kindly sponsoring this workshop.

What We Like About This Resource….

“Faith’s work creating sculptures using recycled or discarded plastic is really beautiful, and exceeds expectation of what we might consider scrap plastic being able to do. The processes she uses, particularly with the dancing figures, are all easily accessible to a school setting, with tape, card, wire being relatively inexpensive and simple to use. Delivering an Art project using waste plastic has cross curricular links with other subject areas, particularly PSHE and Geography where children may be learning about the environment and how to protect it” – Tobi, AccessArt.
