Rather debonair

The children in my Friday art group at Singlegate Primary School have been making their papier mache birds - here’s a nestful, and there are many more. They are inventing names and personalities and stories for the birds, and will be making books about them for the school library. One is a sumo bird, and another wears tiny glasses.


I’ve been at the London Print Studio making a screenprint - lots of little people living in giant jellies. Unfortunately I had lots of technical hitches so the prints didn’t come out as well as I had hoped. But I like the fluorescent colours.


Spent the day at Morden Hall Park with the School Arts Partnership groups from Cricket Green and Wimbledon Chase schools - each child had a canvas and painted from life outdoors - lots of fun and some really interesting results.
