Art Suite

This term in the Art Suite we are making cushions. We are using a new method of Batik which is easy to use and mess free. We are using flour and water mix. For our first session in the Art Suite we had to draw different kinds of fish and choose one drawing we would use for our cushion. Then we had to transfer the picture onto the template we were using. Once we had drawn on our template we taped a piece of Calico material overtop of our template. Then we had to use the flour and water mix in a little squeeze bottle to make our print. Here are some photos to show you what we have done so far. Keep an eye out for more photos once we have been to our next Art Suite sessions.

We had to draw a fish first.

We drew lots of different kinds of fish before we decided what one we would put on our cushion.

Then we used the flour and water for the batik.

Ready to try and be painted during our next Art Suite Session.
