Get ready to let your imagination run wild in this spooky mixed-media art workshop, where painting, collage and storytelling come together to create your very own haunted house! 👻🏚️
What does your haunted house look like? Is it an abandoned mansion hidden deep in the woods? A crooked little cottage on a moonlit hill? A mysterious house where nobody knows what happens after dark? You decide!
🎨 What will we create?
We'll begin by creating a dramatic painted background, experimenting with colour, light and atmospheric skies to set the scene. Then it's time to design and build our haunted houses using collage, cut paper and silhouettes, layering shapes to create windows, rooftops, trees, ghosts and other mysterious details.
