Christmas Frieze for Early Years

The Christmas frieze for Early Years was created as part of a workshop by artist, Jess Webb. This activity will give young children an instant result from a simple printing technique using sponge and ready mixed paint. It will also offer them an opportunity to explore colour, shape and textures through the collage techniques used to decorate the trees.
