Star Wars visits Acrylic

Myart classes ae made up of a variety of aged children. 

 WE work together on a project but each child works at his or her own stage of devlopment and age range.

 I do not usually do work with popular icons but as I am a Star Wars fan and absolutely love the set designs, old yet new machinery and of course the elaborate clothing, we set about these amazing an fun works.

 Each child chose their own character.

 Each child had a picture to work from. They drew their work first using pencil and then set to work painting them. 

These were large works and took a whole lesson and some. 

 Just lovlely!!

Holiday art- The Selfie

My holiday art clsses are 2 hours long. This gives us a lot of time to draw and make.

This class was an exploration of self.

First of we worked on the proportions for facial features. ( not shown here)

Then the children had a mirror and could draw themselves.

We branched out into crazy faces on canvas with hot and cold colours and clay creations. 

Lots of fun!!

Holiday Art - a wash with water and colour!

This was a class of watercolour fun.

The children explored using watercolours without drawing in pencil first.

This is often a stretch for young children but I love it when they give it a go!

These pen and ink and then watercolour creations are fabulous.

Holiday art

 This holiday I ran several art classes at Art@Thestudio. We had a great time exploring birds.

 My classes are always mixed age groups and in this one I had 14 year olds right down to a 7 year old.

 The children worked in oil pastel on a fantastic, large bird head drawing.

 Latter on we explored sculpture with a bottle, tin foil and paper mache.

 I can fly!!
