More about Fun a Day:

We're here to support creative folk all throughout the year! Fun A Day Dundee hosts their main project every January. This is about encouraging anyone and everyone to make time for some fun, some creativity, some little activities into their daily routines. It brightens a dull month, boosts mental health and helps people to focus on their hobbies, artwork and creative practices. The FADD team were inspired to do more during covid-19 lockdowns, and we began hosting workshops, mini projects and artist Zoom Sessions (making art together and showcasing artists) all outwith our usual January project. We continue to provide a platform of inspiration, mini projects, and creative showcasing as Fun A Day Creatives. Our Facebook & Instagram feeds are for promoting and supporting our community, so if you have an activity or event you'd like to share, get in touch!

This week's free online creative group session is all about Roy Lichtenstein!

Pick an image from a magazine or photograph and simplify it by breaking it down into its main components and using dots to add shade and any necessary detail. Think about ascribing some satirical meaning to it to add some tongue-in-cheek!

TIP - see if you limit your colours to blue, yellow, red, white, and black.

What you will need: You can use whatever you like! Paper and pen will work and some tracing paper might be handy too! We will be using a photograph and sharpies.

Join in tonight with our Fun a Day Dundee Creative's Art Group. See the link in 'About Us' to get logged on at 7pm 🥰 the prompt this week is "use wood in any way you like to create a visual of your local landscape"

Join our Online Creative Art Group!

This week, our prompt remains on Doug Cocker!

What you need: It’s up to you! But if you are stuck, why not try using different kinds of paper to create a collage, or bind some sticks together with string and see what kind of sculptural piece you can create. Or, perhaps you have something in your home made of wood already (e.g. an old book, pencils, lolly sticks) that you can use as a starting point to paint onto, add to or manipulate?
