Our own studio?!

robert and i enjoyed teaching the kids today.  bringing forward yesterday's lesson to yishun's outlet, we employed the use of masking tape again.  The results were fantastic, especially for a boy, jefferson's work. everyone placed their tapes at random on their drawing paper, but jefferson did it creatively.  he imagined each tape to be the sides of a road, then added shorter pieces for the dashes on the road, more tape to fence up the parking lot, the traffic lights... 


this is the result: 
(pics next week forgot to take a pic)





talked to the professor after work today and she told me that the boss of Trasnah wants to let us use a rented place at lucky heights to do our wor
k and we can use whatever is there- kind of like an artist residency

but hey ain't that too good to be true.  yar we do work for him but, it cant be that easy right?  There must be an ulterior motive for such a move- he even says we can bring along other lasalle students along... that's according to the professor.  have to find out more details myself.  but not now. 

got more info about the exhibition at NLB.  it's the same thing i participated in last year with Life Art Society, just that i only contributed to the painting of an orchid looking flower on the 1000-ft long chinese painting.  This time i suppose we are able to showcase our works there, with the Trasnah kids work and hopefully someone'll buy it.  Since i am in love with the masking tape i might do a canvas painting with the same concept.  


argh need to speak with him personally.  my sources are not clear themselves.





showed my cousins how to put junk to good use.

these are the coloured acrylic sheets left from the mobile making session during the camp on thursday.  i saved then and used them like sequins as a collage decorative element in the kids' work both yesterday and today.  This is what my cousins did in my sketchbook.
