'Make, Build, Create' is an easy to follow, beautifully illustrated collection of hands-on sculptural activities and projects for children. 'Make, Build, Create' provides the opportunity for children of all ages and abilities to develop their artistic abilities and fulfil an enjoyment of creating through art. Children 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 while making personal sculptural artworks. 'Make, Build, Create' has project ideas for all abilities, and encourages a playful attitude to exploring materials and sculpture. The book will appeal to children (and their parents!) aged 6 upwards wanting new projects to try at home, and also to teachers and facilitators for use in a more formal education setting. 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.
