After both Yuval and i were sick for the past weeks, we finally met yesterday! We began with a drawing of a soap dispenser...
And then i wanted to continue on from last lesson about mosaics...i talked about the artist Sergeev Ruslan who builds mosaic covered sculptures like this massive grasshopper where we live - again i bring in the connection to something Yuval is very familiar with.
She even went on to tell me about his many lion sculptures in Jerusalem...
I showed her more pictures of masaic work and emphasised the use of colour and light and shadow..and then we went on to finished her ladybird. I actually joined her (something i dont usually do) and i think it was great to do something together as a team.
I love the way it turned out! I noticed that while we were tearing and sticking she learnt that for the curves you need smaller pieces and that playing with different colours and textures creates different effects.
take care, g xo
the sculptures are amazing + so colourful....how i'd love to see them for real. x
that grasshopper!!!!
