Artist Chloe Williams introduces children attending a workshop at Back Lane Artspace, to colour and printmaking on an ambitious and energetic scale.

This project was shared with AccessArt as part of the 40 Artist Educator Project, funded by Arts Council England, aiming to highlight and celebrate artist-led teaching and facilitation.

Painting the Savannah: Horizons, Colour, Printing and Painting by Chloe Williams

This project was initially created as one of many jungle themed activities for my Little Art Club (2-5yr olds). At Little Art Club, the emphasis is on exploring materials and allowing the children to make their own decisions. The project spanned over 2 separate sessions so that the monoprints could dry before the next stage.

I have chosen this activity to share because it can work with pre- school, Foundation / KS1 and KS2 children.  It also covers a range of art practices: mono printing, drawing, colour mixing, painting, landscapes/skyscapes, stencils, collage and scale.

Morag Thompson Merriman

Mo is a Scottish visual artist with a MA (Hons) degree in Fine Art. Her work is an intuitive response to the way memory is overlaid with historic or recent experiences of loss, absence and change, experimenting with ways to convey ‘presence’, or the sense of something being revealed or concealed. She is inspired by familial connections to the landscape and her inherited collection of earthy textured pottery ware. Small in scale, her work is mostly on paper, manipulated with mixed media to create subtle, richly textured surfaces. Mo is responsible for all social media marketing for AccessArt on Instagram and works part-time.
