Parkside Painting Fun

7/2/2014

2 Comments

 
I had the pleasure this week of visiting The Parkside School in Norwich during their arts week. There was loads of activities going on. I worked with 4 groups on expressive mark making. I took them through some warm up activities before we started on the BIG painting. There was sponging, scraping, dragging, smearing and of course squirting and dribbling paint. All the groups thoroughly explored the potential of paint and enjoyed the complicité of making a group piece. We made time lapses films of the painting which I will hopefully be able to post here later. I was very lucky to be in a room that had wipe clean walls and a very accommodating teacher, as we made quite a mess!

Sophie's contribution during our Arts Week was fantastic. The pupils (of all ages and abilities) thoroughly enjoyed both her workshops, and finding out about her work as an artist during a whole school assembly. This contributed to them successfully gaining their Art Award 'Discover' accreditation, and the films were a brilliant and much admired addition to our exhibition. All of the staff and pupils wish to pass on their thanks for your fabulous contribution to the week Sophie.
