A hands on workshop presented by Christina Bianchi and Patricia Hunter McGrath of Branches Atelier.
This is the first session in the 5 part “Developing Your Studio” workshop series that focuses on how to develop a studio/Atelier at school or at home. We encourage attendance at any one, any combination or all of these workshops.
Tempera Paint can be mixed in an infinitely nuanced palette, but how often do we end up creating colors that represent the vitality, diversity and beauty of the natural world? Join us as we consider how we can use this resource to bring attention to the richness of the environment including:
What are the tricks and tips to creating a wide range of beautiful palettes?
What are the techniques of paint mixing with children?
How can color support children learning?
How can a wide range of paint colors support children’s connection to nature?
What is the difference between a tone, hue, shade and tint?
How can paint and color support literacy and poetic language?
This Workshop includes the price of paint cups and paints that participants can use to create a palette that can be taken back to their centers. Participants will also create a paint recipe book that can be used as a tool to create beautiful palettes throughout the year.
Tickets are $110
