🩷🖼️💛There’s still time to sign up your creative 11-16 year olds for Aurora art studios Summer Art Week. The young artists will get the opportunity to work on their art for an extended period of time, working with new materials, experimenting with techniques and generating more ideas with new art friends. Each day we will be working with a new material or technique to explore ideas and develop creative curiosity. The pupils will start by making paper from scratch learning the technique and using the handmade paper to draw botanicals. The young artist will go into paisley sketching the local area by observing the architecture, nature against the urban backdrop to develop confidence in their drawing skills. They will have fun creating collages from collected materials. These studies can then be used as reference for expressive painting studies that incorporate the pupils own ideas and style. On the last day we will be creating sculptures with clay along with weaving and other crafts of their choosing.

All materials are provided and the cost is £225 for the week. To book a place please email [email protected]

On Tuesday night the sun was out and a queue had formed of excited friends and family eager to see their young artists work for the opening of the Children’s Summer Art Exhibition 2025.

The studio was filled with astonishment at the wonderfully diverse work created by the talented young artists,

The exhibition is open daily from 10-4 until Sunday 6th July and all are welcome 🩷

There are art materials out for any visitors to try out, Sophie P brought her family along today and they all enjoyed doing sketches and paintings of their favourite artworks 🎨💕

I had the pleasure of hosting Maia’s 8th Birthday Arty Party today at Aurora Art Studio 💜❤️🩷💙💚💛🎨

Maia and her friends enthusiastically got straight into painting their mini masterpieces 🖼️ they all knew exactly what they wanted to paint 🎨 the subject matters ranged from a rainbow vase of flowers to a cat with wings flying through the night sky.

Maia’s mum put on a fabulous afternoon tea with delicious treats and the girls posed for pictures in front of the floral backdrop. They all sang out happy Birthday whilst Maia blew out her candles and returned to their easels to finish their paintings.

Maia loves dragons so a paint your own dragon hanging plant pot was included in the party bags for more art fun at home 🎨💕

If you have a creative child and would like more information on Aurora art studios children’s arty birthday parties email Claire at [email protected]💕

Our adult art class is returning on Friday this week from 10am-12pm and will be a permanent feature at Aurora art studio.

The class is friendly and encourages you to help develop your artistic skills, whether you are a beginner or returning to a love of art you previously had. The class nurtures those skills through creative practises in drawing and painting using a variety of techniques and materials. Many students have found it has sparked their creativity and they are actively working on projects outwith class times and it has helped them in their own creative fields.

The class is booked in monthly blocks by emailing [email protected]
