Studio Online: Making Patterns, Inspired by Darcie Kennedy

Inspired by artist Darcie Kennedy, who is currently exhibiting as part of our “Presently” exhibition at the Art Gallery of Peterborough.
Her painting Untitled (Tools and Combs #3) uses common household tools and other items to create textured patterns by reflecting domestic actions such as chores, cooking, and cleaning, and the result is a pattern that looks like textiles, wallpaper, and upholstery commonly found in the home.
In this art activity, you will make your own artwork, like Darcie Kennedy, experimenting with different ways to apply paint by using household objects.
Suitability: Ages 6+
You Will Need:
A sheet of paper, carboard, bristol board, or canvas
Paint - a thicker paint, like acrylic, works best, but thin paint like watercolours will not work.
Paintbrush
Paper plate or palette
A comb, fork, or another similar household object
