Craft & Hobbies

A companion to the bestselling Drawing Projects for Children, Make Build Create is an easy to follow, beautifully illustrated collection of hands-on sculptural activities and projects for children.
Children of all ages are encouraged to explore how they might transform a wide variety of natural and man-made materials through a series of open-ended projects. Inspiration is taken from architecture, landscapes, figures, and objects in the everyday environments around us. These carefully selected activities enable children to learn sculptural techniques such as casting, carving and construction whilst making personal sculptural artworks.
The author, Paula Briggs, co-founder and director of visual arts education charity AccessArt, has extensive experience conducting sculpture workshops with children of all ages. The projects included in Make Build Create involve her expertise in broadening children's artistic horizons and building confidence in their new skills.
