A children’s art and fantasy book with stimulating themes and techniques that are easy to implement. For children between 5 and 12 years - all projects are also suitable for groups. Parents and educators discover an open method that does justice to children’s creativity. "Feather, Wire and Brush" gets children interested in painting, handicrafts, printing and experimenting. It is an imaginatively designed picture book with many ideas and suggestions and at the same time an instruction book in which various artistic techniques are taught. How are tempera colors mixed and what is oil proofing? What can be shaped well from wire, how is a wooden relief created? The techniques are explained step by step, but creativity is given free rein when implementing the ideas. All the examples in this book were invented and made by children and young people, resulting in mixed-media collages, wooden cranks, paper theater stages, papier-mâché islands or clay castles.
