Synopsis
Welsh Language Edition

'Celf Waith ... Cestyll'

Castles tower in our imagination. Wales is very fortunate because it is a good place to see and experience several well-preserved castles close up. They are one of our most prominent physical links to the past and have been a popular subject of artists throughout the centuries.

The cyfres 'Celf Waith ...' is a series of eight lively illustrated art resource books for use in school and at home. A fun learning tool for children at Key Stage 2 (ages 8 to 11) and above, the series explores a range of cross-curricular themes within the context of art. Distinctly Welsh in flavour, the books feature examples of artworks by well-known artists in Wales, past and present. These challenging and dynamic learning materials will instruct and inspire young artists to explore their imaginations. Teachers will also find the timely ideas and background information a valuable addition to their lesson plans and teaching resources.

Each book in the series contains:

· a featured artist with biographical information and examples of artwork

· examples of related contextual artworks by other artists

· four original art projects with step-by-step instructions

· historical information

· art terms and useful art tips

Art projects in 'Celf Waith ... Cestyll':

· Castle Frieze

· The Banqueting Cloth

· Making a Sculpture

· A Painting of a Castle

'Celf Waith ... Cestyll' features the work of artist Richard Wilson.

A full-colour A2 classroom poster illustrating an artwork by each featured artist is also available separately. As a set, the series makes a wonderful teaching aid for exploring art thematically within a Welsh context.

· This book is also available in English under the title ‘Artworks On ... Castles’.
