5th post

Tuesday:
For the the first half of the day, we started to produce a painting of the still life set up, using only red, yellow, blue, brown and white paint so that we could experiment in mixing colours and adding water to the paint.

 In the afternoon we created plaster relief sculptures using objects pressed into clay and then set in Plaster of Paris.

Wednesday:
We used the sewing machines in textiles to get used to how they work and techniques to use with them. When we were comfortable in using the machines, we moved on to drawing with the thread.
In the afternoon we first learnt the basics of Photoshop in graphics such as adding new layers, selecting areas and filling areas with colour and for art history we began looking at specific careers using art.


Friday:
 We continued working on our painting from Tuesday looking to add more detail.
