Ethereal Figures: Capturing the Ghostly Essence
Description: This station invites children to use charcoal and soft pastels to portray ghostly figures. The focus is on mastering soft shading and blending techniques to evoke a sense of the ethereal. It's an opportunity to explore how light and delicate touches can create a ghostly atmosphere in art.
Chimera Collages: A Fusion of Fantastical Elements
Description:** Children can experiment with various materials such as fabric, paper, and paint to create their own mythical creatures. This station encourages a thoughtful approach to mixed media, helping participants understand how different textures and elements can come together to form cohesive, imaginative works.
