Half Mask

Here are some images from our last summer camps. The children learned about half masks in our 'Art of Mask workshop'. They all created their own unique characters which they used in their performances.

Easter crafts

Happy Easter ! In keeping with the easter festivities and enjoying the sunshine we decided to start our class with an Easter egg hunt in the park. There was plenty of chocolate bunnies and eggs to find and the Easter break got off to a good start. Take a look at the beautiful eggs my students created. We blew out the eggs before decorating them. We then collected some leaves and grass and anything that might make a good design on the surface of the eggshell.The eggs were placed in a pair of old tights with the leaves and grass and then boiled in a natural red onion dye.
