A month full of holidays and festivities so while classes were few and far between, we did make sure to make the most of them.
Classes this month focused on colour. Colour as a medium of expression, colour as form and colour as content.
Materials: Matchsticks, glue, paper.
Lesson Objectives:
Students:
a) explored colour as a medium of expression.
c) created different kinds of lines with drawing tools and the matchsticks.
c) Experimented further with the medium of collage by sticking the bits of brightly coloured cloth onto paper.
Results:
The results have been very encouraged, students are staying longer and longer at the lessons, sometimes staying after the class is over to complete the work.
The work of both junior and senior classes was wonderful. They quite literally took the material as far as it could possibly go. While some glued the cloth layer by layer, others folded, tore, cut and 'constructed'. The works that have been put up on the website are masterpieces in their own right and correct me if I'm wrong but I swear there's a Matisee in there!!!!!!
