A brain stretching Sunday workshop looking at hard edges, soft edges and seamless edges!

My students created wonderful work today, beginning with the Planet and the boiled egg exercises, the task being to create a seamless edge around both but with changing relationships between the subject and its background (ie. light against dark - dark against light). They moved onto drawing the scrunched paper, bringing the notions learned from the exercises to the scrunched paper drawing.


As ever, some of my students brough their own projects from home and were able to work on them.


Altogether a lovely day with lovely results.

About this site...
 
I am an art teacher living and working in Dorset.  I have taught for the Adult Education Service and the University of Bath, plus some supply teaching in my local schools but now I run my courses privately. This site is intended as an addition to my teaching, primarily now to showcase the Sunday workshops I run.
 
All lessons are also available for any one anywhere who would like some ideas on what to teach, what to learn or is just interested in seeing what we do.
 
I'm afraid I won't be able to answer emails asking for comments on anyone's work (other than for currently enrolled students).
 
I run Sunday workshops, one every month and a short summer school.. Other than that I spend every available moment in my studio or drawing and painting elsewhere.
 
I studied for four years at The Slade School of Fine Art where I was awarded The Slade Prize on graduation. I went on to travel and study further finally doing a P.G.C.E at Exeter University with Ted Wragg as my mentor. It was a wonderful year of education which set me in good stead for my years of teaching since then.
