As I sometimes work abroad my great friend Mekette chips in and covers my absence, so this time around she found this fabulous illustrator, fell in love with her work and decided to start this project to honour it. I also fell in love with it and super happily continued working with kids on this project till they produced these lovely pieces of art.
Kids used a mirror to observe their faces and capture the expressions on to the paper by using pencils and then we traced them onto the cardboard. Once traced and cut, we used the gum tape to construct these 3-D sculptures ready for the acrylic paint to be put on. My job was to glaze them at the end, as I’m good at that :))))) Perfect ‘End of the Year’ results! …
