Fantastical Figures and Where to Find Them
Sophie Catto
Tuition $495
Code K0202-22
Do mermaids always have to live in water? How are unicorns magical? Do all dragons fly? In this workshop, young artists explore the fantastical figures that many of us dream and read about.Students look to stories and animals for inspiration and create mythical creatures of their own using various mixed media such as paint, papier-mâché, collage and clay. Participants give their fantastical figures unique characteristics, create origin stories and use the surrounding environment for inspiration. They also create a home for their figures derived from nature, myth and legends. Finally, the fantastical figures will be released into the wild where friends and family can discover them on a magical quest. Ready, Set, Roar!
