Art doesn’t just have to be done inside using traditional paint, brushes and drawings. You can make art using everything around you in nature too!
Activity
Take a piece of paper into your outdoor space. Look around you for inspiration. Could you use some muddy earth to make paint? Could a fallen twig become a paintbrush or drawing tool? What about brightly coloured leaves or petals, could they become a part of your artwork? Try to add as many different colours, textures and materials as possible to your picture.
