This is what Christian did during his holiday camp..I was trying so hard to look for a camp which would teach him some basic skills of drawing, and Christian lurvvved his art class so much he kept asking if we could continue.
Given that we had just made the decision to pare down his classes to two (swim & chinese) it was difficult for me to accede to it, but i am definitely going to sign him up again during the next holiday. I think part of the reason why he enjoys art over the others is cos he gets to experiment with different materials and create something without pressure.
During his 6 lessons at the art camp, he made a lighthouse out of toilet rolls and clay:
drew a butterfly:
and painted a scene of his choice on canvas (in case you can’t tell, it’s a prince in front of a castle, at night..):
I think this is great work for an almost 5 year old..think i was still drawing stick figures at 7. Hah. Am very happy to have found the “Little Artists” studio at Mandarin Gardens too..the teacher-student ratio is excellent and they look like a proper art studio instead of a kiddy craft play enrichment centre.
Will continue to encourage him to practise at home, till the next art camp!
