New paintings and regular art updates.
I think this came out quite well. I started with straight lines then added the curves. It’s meant to be a bit asymmetric. I think it has a 1930’s feel? I could imagine it as a stencil. It needs some tissue paper behind it, perhaps red or orange. The craft knife was so sharp it actually cut slivers of plastic off the ruler. A couple more to do but I’ve really enjoyed learning a new skill.
Partly cut cat…..today’s craft skill held at B Arts in Stoke, was learning to use a craft knife to cut out our own designs. I’d almost finished this before the break. I’ve bought the sheet of paper home so I can complete this and three others, one is a sunset, then something based on a green man and the fourth is a horse. I will try and finish them off today.
Today I went to some art workshops and learned a bit more about drama, mask making, puppetry, animation and making dioramas. From nine till five. The final section was to create boxes and make tiny landscapes inside them. Mine and a fellow artist created a swimming pool party, with a pool with gold edging, and columns. Lilos, deck chairs and cocktail umbrellas as sun parasols. We even added a jacuzzi!
