- Examine some of the techniques and skills used by the artists to produce these fine examples of Japanese works of art
- Discover how different techniques were used to manipulate the visual effects of the pieces and final images
- Explore how visual and tactile qualities were used by the artists to convey mood, ideas and feelings in the works on display
In this session children will:
- Work with a professional artist
- Use new skills to analyse historically and artistically significant works within the exhibition
- Take part in discussion activities in front of original paintings and works of art
