Lots of Lovely Art

Discover the wonders of the animal kingdom with the Awesome Animals Art Box!

Part of their beauty lies in their versatility as subjects: they are often used as symbols, but they can also be majestic creative muses in their own right. In this box we look at creatures big and small, from wild animals to farm animals, from bugs and butterflies to fish.

Suitable for children 4 years and over. Each project has tips to tailor for young children

Many artists have painted pictures of their domestic pets and livestock. George Stubbs, for example, widely known as a painter of horses, created stunning pictures of a multitude of animals and caught the eye of King George III as a result. The king had Stubbs paint a portrait of his scruffy yet lovable pooch in ‘A Rough Dog’, 1790. In this box, we look at a wide collection of artists and at how they depict different animals in different styles, from wild creatures to farm animals, from bugs to butterflies and fish!
