Jo Burlington Messy Play: Preschool
We are a beautiful painting!
with oops wow messy art
A playful and messy exploration of paint and colour. We will go through all of the stages of making a painting, and we won’t stop until the children have finished.
It’s one of the hardest decisions an artist has to make…. when is it finished? Well, first ask, what is it for? For children aged 2-5 years old, it’s for discovering, being brave, experimenting, putting more on, and seeing what it feels like to squeeze the bottle and use their toes. It’s a full-body experience, it’s really fun.
As a parent, we can see startlingly beautiful abstract compositions appear and then quickly get covered over, but it’s not for that. We will end up with a purplish-brown soggy rag – always the result of a good painting session. There will be a number of different activities to do during the workshop, we will start with a story and end up in the paint.
Tuesday 12th September 10.15 til 12 midday in the hall at Bridport Youth & Community Centre.
Good for kids ages 2-5 years old. Everyone needs to dress for mess, not just the kids.
