Creating a Masterpiece With Galt Toys

Last week the lovely people at Galt Toys were looking for parent bloggers with children between the ages of 5 and 12 to take part in a fun art challenge.

The idea for the art challenge came from something that they did earlier in the year. Galt Toys asked the famous contemporary artist Ed Chapman to recreate Andy Warhol's Marilyn Monroe portrait using arts and crafts materials from Galt themselves and since then Galt Toys. Ed managed to show just would could be achieved using the right art supplies and of course a little bit of imagination. This ledd to Galt Toys launching their very own Mini Masterpiece series.

Using template from six famous works of art, Galt Toys decided that they want your children to print them out so that they can decorate them and create their very own mini masterpieces.

Last month Galt toys shared with you a fantastic Monet piece of art, this could then be downloaded and printed out, giving children the chance to redesign this famous artwork and make it their own and by sharing it with Galt Toys, they were in the running to win a fantastic arts and crafts bundle worth £50.

This month is the turn of Van Gogh's Starry Night. My children and I were lucky enough to be sent a Sponge Painting Box to help us with our creations.
