Back to Kaye's today to finish painting the different bits of the insect sculptures. It's a bit of a whirlwind of decision making and frantic painting, and the kids have responded amazingly. The final outcome is far busier and has a celebratory feel that I hadn't expected- they remind me of Easter eggs, or Giles Brandreth's sweaters. Excellent.
'Scuse the quality of the pics- they were taken in Shiela's shed.

Kaye's again again again again..
Phew!
Monday saw the youngsters visiting the willow dome at the school in bin-liner clad droves. they did a fantastic job of putting down all the base colours AND most importantly not getting any of the legs mixed up.
Tomorrow the details and patterns go onto the sculptures and we're ready to install. Here's praying for good weather- the willow dome is an ideal place to work. Thanks to Angie and Headteacher for preparing the space and the kids so well.

Life class and random dragon fly.
Here's some pictures from a recent life class and a photo of the dragon fly for Kaye's Millenium Green hanging on the studio wall. They're going to be painted by the children from the school next week and then installed ready for a celebration day in October- news to come.
