Eco Rock Art School Incursion

School Incursion

Engaging students in biological art is a fantastic way for them to learn about local flora and fauna. In the drawing process, the students actively pay attention to shapes, patterns, and colours. The interactive talk covers species survival, life cycles, and interaction within the ecosystem.

Eco Action leads fascinating and educational Eco Rock Art Workshops for children and adults in Perth Area.  The workshops are suitable for school incursions and community events. Eco Rock Art incursions encourage children to develop their visual analysis skills, concentration, and creative problem-solving. Children must determine the best way to show certain textures, connect body parts, and how to tackle perspective.

They can also use the features of the natural material (rock) to add perspective or emphasize shapes.

In the workshop, the participants will be able to draw and interact with a range of friendly native fauna, including frogs, tadpoles, a bobtail lizard, insects (stick or leaf insects, beetles, butterflies, caterpillars), spiders, and scorpions.

Even adults enjoy Eco Rock Art Workshops. The activity allows them to relax, create, and learn in an interactive and engaging way.
