The Egg

 This term in our adult class we looked at eggs.  We looked at the science of light and how light falls onto an object like a sphere or an egg and creates a grading of tone . We looked at the shadow created by the egg.

 We set to work woth our eggs. Some pencil work and some used pastels and charcoal too.





 Then we set about working on an actual art work. Most opted to work in oils.

Just lovely!!

Please do not bug me!!

 This term we had some fabric, art fun!! First we chose our subject from a picture of some sort. Then the artists created a simple template by observing and drawing the object.
 Then they set to work. Choosing colours that worked together from the colour wheel was part of this project.




 Work ranged from insects through to wolves. They were wonderful!!!




 Fabric paint is tricky and takes a little getting used to when painting with it. The detail was created with fine liners and or paintbrushes,
