Artistic Pursuits - stress free art



The price of this course put me off for a year or so - at £20, it's more than I'm used to paying. But I've not been disappointed. We are doing the first book, aimed at K-3. Each of the 30 units is a three page lesson; part one explores something about what artists do- eg 'Artists look', 'Artists communicate' etc; part two is what artists see - this is a brief art appreciation section; the final part is a practical (and quick) project for putting what the student has learnt into practice. Students can see work done by other children to give them ideas/courage!

This course is so incredibly easy to use, I can't think there is any parent out there who couldn't use it, given a little practice and the help of the local art shop.
