The power of design, patterns and repetition of concepts like line, shapes and colour.

It is awesome to think that each shape is created by a line, and each line is started off by a single dot. Like Paul Klee, an artist whose art is very colourful and child-like, used to say: "A line is a sot that goes for a walk."

"Me to You" Soft Toy Object Drawing

The aim of this workshop was to use the pencil to draw out the soft toy's grizzly, yet soft texture. We also injected a pop of colour to contrast against the silvery shadows of the pencil!

My own varied "Me to You" soft toy collection amused the children, and they had lots of choice from where to select the soft toy they would like to draw.

Here are the drawings your kids came up with, which surprised me a great deal- the are all very talented!
