Acrylics students’ first project this term has been fox cubs. This has been very tricky, and there may even be a few finishing touches to these to come next week.
We learned about getting the proportions right when painting young animals, capturing the texture of fur, adding features like eyes and noses and just capturing their cute little faces! I think they have done a great job, don’t you?! 🦊…

Simply smashing, splashing wave workshop today. Paintings full of colour and movement and we got to use one of my favourite, messy techniques- spattering 💦

Big thanks to everyone that came along. Some amazing work 🌊…

A foggy start to the day today and hundreds of bejewelled spiders webs on my run. So beautiful and delicate 🕷️

I read recently that the spiders web is an extension of its body - it uses it to feel the world around it and it is much more finely tuned and sensitive than we realise. The natural world never ceases to amaze me 🤩

We drew cutlery at art classes yesterday, learning about reductive drawing using rubbers, capturing shine and reflection and more! Spoons are much harder to draw than you’d think. Well done everyone 🍴…
