The lurgi has finally got me! i thought i was going to get away with not getting this cold but i’m really ill. So i’ve just missed the first day back after half term which is a shame as i’ve got big plans for this half term.
before going into that tho, a quick update on the last few weeks…
with the help of kate and don from the print centre i ran a morning workshop with the other half of year 11, we did a similar workshop to before (drypoint on drypoint card and chine colet) so that they had similar experience to the other group and they seemed to really enjoy themselves- they’re a lively bunch and we had more kids and less room, so it was a messy experience but good fun and i think they’ve done some fantastic work.
there’s a handful of kids keen on print so they’re going to come in and work with me when they have their tuesday lessons to build up their portfolios for their exams, i think it’ll be good to spend focussed sessions over some time with a small group, i feel like they only really see me and my work from a distance or in snippets of time so will be good to feel i’m passing on some knowledge and engaging with the kids a bit more.
