week 15

The pupils have worked very hard, painting and collaging the final artwork, next week will be finishing off all the last little bits of detail. I photographed all the canvas separately just to see how they would look together which is why the background colour looks differant in some of them. Look out for it on display at the Basildon Festival 4th/5th July at Gloucester park.

Week Fourteen

The students have worked really well this week, we spent alot of the session drawing out the design onto the canvases, then the groups painted and collaged into the canvas, already the results are quite amazing.

Week Thirteen

Since half term i have been working with both classes each week on Mondays and Wednesdays in which each class has four groups, each group has been given one canvas .

working from the students own ideas and investigations we designed a piece of artwork to cover all 8 canvases. The students collaged differant textures and layers to the canvas, once dry they then painted the background the same shade of light blue before using print rollers to work in a darker blue tone. This has produced a multi layered two tone background to which the main design will be worked into.
