This September in the Atelier, the preschoolers were inspired by the vibrant work of artist Sonia Delaunay. Sonia was known for her love of bright colours and geometric shapes, especially circles and squares. What made her art so special was how she brought creativity into everyday life—designing not only paintings but also clothing, furniture, and textiles filled with bold, joyful patterns.
To explore Sonia’s style, the children experimented with circular loose parts and paint, creating their own 
circular designs on paper. They thoughtfully arranged different-sized colourful circles, layering and overlapping them to see how colours mix and shapes connect.
Through this experience, the preschoolers learned about pattern, repetition, and balance, while also discovering how art can be found everywhere—on the things we wear, use, and see each day. Their creations beautifully reflect Sonia Delaunay’s playful spirit and the joy of exploring art through colour and form.
