Celebrating oil paint - part 1


This is the very first adventure with oils we have embarked on at The Studio. The main reason is the lengthy drying time that oils take.

However, this is our exhibition term and so I decided it would be a fabulous project to undertake.






These are all work in progress. We are painting giant sweets. The children have explored the shape of these sweets and after washing the canvas with a raw amber in watery form, they set of. 



These works show the vibrant, constant colour that oils prove and the slow nature of the work with oils.





Each work is taking form beautifully and individually.
