ArtClub Week 3


This week we had a busy studio with much storytelling, and some quiet focus, as we developed our armatures for our papier-mâché sculptures ...and started building up our first layers too. We will need to add more layers next week, before we can decide what we really have to then paint, embellish and add external details ...although some of you are very clear about what you are making, we can still add features and other elements using our paper, wire, foil, tape, spheres and glue, to further define our creature characteristics.

Some of you were asking about our "big" project. And I said we are already doing it. We will work on circles and those logarithmic spirals going forward, both in drawing and painting...and words if you choose. And we will test out some ideas by making practice compositions - sketch some designs - to work into our canvas bases...as we continue with our 3-D creatures.


Thank you for a busy working studio with lots of great ideas!
