Crafty Juniors

Painting and Drawing

During the Autumn term Junior Art club enthusiasts designed their own special artworks. The girls learnt how to apply acrylic paint in a wide range of colours to small canvases and artist quality paper.

The first group created still life paintings of gateaux, cupcakes, gingerbread men, macaroons and doughnuts covered in hundreds and thousands. The girls were inspired by the artist Wayne Thiebaud and thought about his style of painting in relation to theirs.
