WEEK 7
22nd October 2014
Artists in attendance 13
Origami! Now up to this point I have struggled with origami from books and you tube so when a couple of ladies from our group said they knew a bit I was most excited. I asked the ladies if they would like to run a little session for the art group.
This is the result of that little session.
Firstly we learnt how to make a crane this was quite tricky and some of the group were reluctant to join in, but in the end they did and realized it was actually fun. We then made nuns how fun! I spent the whole day making cranes because someone told me that I make a thousand it would be good luck.
One gentleman in the group remembered making flapping birds as a child and was determined to remember how to do it, I watched him fold and unfold his square of paper many many times. Finally he got it!! He was so pleased with himself that he had remembered something from so long ago. After this success there was no stopping him he made planes and hawks and really enjoyed himself flying his planes across the room. It was so fantastic to watch.
Next week NO PENCILS OR RUBBERS
