Solihull Arts Complex

Join us at Chelmsley Wood Library this summer holiday for Amazing Art workshops. In this session, learn how to draw a cute kitten.

What will you learn?

Create your very own kitten portrait with just a pencil and eraser. Learn how to start complex drawings and create furry patterns and textures. We’ll demonstrate simple ways of measuring and recording proportions accurately to make your kitten realistically cute! In just one session, you’ll have made a beautiful drawing that can be taken home and framed. And you’ll have developed a toolkit of skills, which can be applied to future artwork.
