Birds of Knysna - a Myndful Art Project

Focus: Ground your creation in nature like the beautiful Birds of Knysna .

  • Choose a bird living in Knysna and research its unique qualities and habits.

  • Express the bird’s key elements in 10 simple 5-line-or-less sketches.

  • Define the form in terms of 3D and 2D construction.

  • Use colour and mark-making to record your own ‘bird’ sensations.

  • Take a snap or video and share it with us.

Knysna Lourie Kit

Add your own design marks and colours to the separate peices then assemble in the your chosen format.

Add STEAM LEDs lights

Want to add elements of STEAM to your kit? Our videos will guide you in applying electrical circuits to turn the Knysna Lourie’s wings red or a plant form glowing green at the touch of your finger on a secret button.

Do a MYnd Art 3D Workout:

Create a visual metaphor around a moment in your story:

  • Express where you are in this moment then scan widely to identify a suitable metaphor for your experience.

  • Choose an image that holds your truth then select a MYnd Art workout in either 2 or 3 dimentions. Build scribbles and mark-making as you work on a design reflecting your truth

  • Then share your story on our Wall of Joy.
