Synopsis
Welsh Language Edition
'Celf Waith ... Pobl'
People are preserved in art. Up until the nineteenth century portrait painting was the only way to permanently record what a person looked like. Today there are numerous means and mediums but the purpose remains the same - to freeze a moment in time, linking present and future generations with past.
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 ... Pobl':
