To coincide with the re-release of Drawing Projects for Children by Paula Briggs in August 2020, AccessArt is releasing a brand new drawing challenge to inspire children and teachers.
The AccessArt Drawing Challenge consists of a warm up exercise and a drawing project.
The Making Stronger Drawings warm up is designed to help children explore more confident mark making.
New skills can then be developed further through the Making an Artists’ Book project.
Both activities make use of scrap or recycled paper. You can also develop and adapt the Making an Artists’ Book activity by giving it a focus around a particular theme – for example urban sketching, still life, fashion or product design, or as a daily journal…
The activities are designed for ages 5 to 11, but in reality they are just as suited to teenagers and adults – so do have a go yourself!
It’s completely free to take part, and suitable for all ages and abilities. Tag any drawings made with the hashtag #DrawingProjectsforChildren
Over 4000 people signed up to take part in our last drawing challenge, and we hope our latest one will prove just as popular! The chosen projects are designed to explore how we can make more confident drawings, and develop our ideas into an artist’s book.
For more information and detailed instructions, check out the website.
