First task was to decide on an image each child wanted to draw on the painting.
They practiced drawing several images with indian ink and a stick. Funnily enough all the children decided on bird images.
The children then decided on what painting they were going to draw (they had done several paintings each last week). There were other materials available to draw but everyone chose indian ink again.
After the first images were draw the children realised that a light colour was required to show up the image on the dark paint, hence they included white paint to bring out highlights on their images.
After they have finished their first painting/drawing the children will be able to experiment with other materials. They will have the knowledge and confidence to allow this.
The artworks are very different to anything we have produced before, very exciting!
