I have started my 3rd workshop, which is painting. This is a subject which I have a prior interest in, which is not to say it is one I am automatically confident in. But I do enjoy it.
On the first week we sat around as a group and did some drawing activites, such as blind drawing, which was quite fun, but it did remind me of my foundation course last year! But it was a good ice breaker if you like. We drew pictures of objects we had on us-I drew my watch. After this we began the painting with the acrylic paints. I didnt hunt around for a palette though, and as such I didnt mix my colours to get a good painting done. This sounds like a pretty basic mistake, but I guess I just wasnt thinking after a morning of talking and such. I didnt even really realise until I started to wonder why my painting look crap to be honest! But never mind! I had a good first lesson, and a nice introduction into this workshop
