This week, our art club began with some fun warm-up drawing exercises. Children enjoyed drawing with continuous line; looking at the subject only and not the paper; drawing with their non-dominant hand; and drawing in specks and shadows.
We then moved on to creating our Autumn Textile design. Children began by arranging their leaf compositions, ensuring the leaves were placed face down with the veins facing away from the fabric. They then used a wax resist technique by rubbing the shapes of leaves through the fabric with a wax crayon and then applied fabric paint to the rubbings. Our results are fantastic!
