This week we set up three tables of objects to draw. We talked about
- looking carefully at the objects
 
- selecting the bits we want to draw
 
- drawing the object from ‘my’ point of view
 
- how to paint a gradient
 
- mixing the colour we want

Today I taught art all day Easter holiday art camp for kids aged 4-11. As you can see we designed kimono, made fluffy sushi, and tried Japanese calligraphy. Also not pictured, origami, temples and mixed media retelling of the Japanese folk tale about a fisherman and a turtle, Urashima Tarou.
