Wellbeing Session - art-K
REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED
As parents and carers life is always busy - We rarely have time to focus on ourselves!
21 Together’s Wellbeing Sessions are specifically aimed at those parents / carers / family members who deserve a little time to recharge and regroup. Come and join us for an informal and friendly couple of hours to relax, share ideas and take some time out for yourself. A really open friendly group where you can talk all things DS or alternatively just have a good old chat about anything else.
As always, 21 Together staff will be on hand for advice and support, but now we are online the choice of drinks is up to you!
We are excited to invite you to a Henri Matisse inspired art class led by Kate, a Fine Artist. Kate has been teaching budding artists at art-K in her permanent studio in Wimbledon as well as online via Zoom. The lockdown has provided an amazing opportunity for art-K and Kate to teach students internationally, it's been wonderful!
Henri Matisse Design
Henri Matisse is an iconic artist most well-known for his cut-out shapes. We are going to develop his original concept and create an illustrative Matisse-style, using patterns to bring his shapes to life.
Learning through patterns is an amazing way to learn how to construct new shapes, develop illustrations and it also brings a sense of calm and wellbeing, which is much needed!
The class is applicable for all levels from age 18+. There's something to draw on for everyone.
Materials needed:
21 Together will provide these in advance of the session.
2 x A4 sheets of sketchbook paper (alternative - A4 paper)
Black fineliner pen (alternative - biro) (Kate will be using a Sharpie Ultra Fine Tip Black Marker pen, they're really good!)
Pencil
Rubber
Sharpener
Optional additions:
Scissors
Coloured card or painted paper (prior to the session)

Date: Wednesday 13th January 2021
Time: 7:30pm - the art class will last for 1 hour and then there will be time after for a general chat and catch up.
