Visual Manna's Art Adventures in Narnia
By Visual Manna
Art Adventures in Narnia is jammed packed with 55 art lessons that are inspired by the wonderful world of the fantasy stories, including those by C. S. Lewis and J.R. Tolkien. It contains lessons on how to draw lions for older and younger children, the talking trees, castles, thrones, fantasy creatures and much much more. Web sites that take you to master works of art are also included in the lessons. An example would be studying The Room by Matisse, examining the use of patterns, and drawing a room inside the professor's house which teaches one point perspective. We also have several lessons on knights and ancient weapons. Projects are for younger and older children.
"Once there were four children whose names were Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy." C. S. Lewis fans everywhere know that this famous line leads children and adults alike into the land of Narnia, a place where a wardrobe leads to a fantasy land and beavers become your protectors.
What made C. S. Lewis such a renowned children's author? Was it his ability to mold fantasy worlds so complex that it took a series to explain it all? Or was it his love of children's books even as an adult? This book will engage readers as it details the timeless Narnia series, fantasy literature in general, C. S. Lewis's life, and much more.
