Designing Wallpaper!

By Paula Briggs

For the past few weeks in the AccessArt Art Club for Children aged 7,8, and 9 we have been drawing fossils, which produced some wonderful images. You might enjoy seeing Thoughtful Mark Making,  Monoprinting with Carbon Paper, and Dressing up as Fossils. This week the children used used photocopies of their own drawings as inspiration to have a go at designing wallpaper!  They created individual designs based on the theme of ‘fossil’ or ‘rock’.
