What great listeners and artists in Miss H’s class at Galatea School. Recently I had the pleasure of teaching 12 pupils these art principals:

• the importance of really looking at and not just seeing the object you wish to create

• how to evaluate tone so that you can paint in any colour

• how to create fun textured papers

• and finally the technique of hand painted paper collage.

Drawing the apple, mixing colours, the underpainting, fun textured paper making, collaging, and the finished apple.

Fabulous collaging by the students.
