Qualified school teacher and keen artist Sandy Rixon regularly runs holiday workshops for children, taking them through a series of different mediums and even getting them involved in some cooking.
Aged four to 14, the kids have done painting, drawing, still-lifes, sculpture and even fantasy gardens, all around the theme of Alice in Wonderland.
The older children also help Ms Rixon prepare a hot lunch to renew their artistic energy.
She said at the end of the three days, the children had numerous finished artworks to take home, but not before displaying them in a special exhibition for parents after the final workshop.
“It’s great for their imagination and confidence, and their motor skills, and they have a lot of fun along the way,” Ms Rixon said.
The Loft will host more art activities next week. For more information phone Ms Rixon on 0447 035 540.
