Join The Tetley’s resident family artist of the month, Leeds-based artist Helen Gibson, professionally known as The Perky Painter, to explore what makes your family special. You’ll be using animal features to create a family mascot, championing the qualities and attributes that you see in your family members.
This session expands on the element of play and performance, creating a costume to theatrically embody your family mascot.
Using easy to follow drawing techniques, you’ll be guided through the creation of your Family Mascot illustration. We’ll bring this to life by crafting a Family Mascot costume for the children to play in character.
Helen’s whimsical characters and brightly coloured paintings are instantly recognisable. Drawing inspiration from her playful imagination and love of animals, Helen’s unique perspective looks beyond the everyday into a vivid world of colour, texture and personality.
