Activities: Axolotyl Painting + Clay Figurine

The process has 2 parts to this art piece. The background will be made with a monoppirnt technique which ensures an individual effect for everyone. Then we paint the shape, colours and textures, of the platypus. Colour theory and paintbrush techniques are experimented first, then to finish their art masterpiece. In the second activity, we again explore the basic shapes that make up the body, legs and head of the chameleon, then correct joining techniques for the clay figurine.

Teacher: Hi my name is Cheryl and I am a Buderim artist. I spent my younger years living here and attending local schools. This a beautiful part of the world with a creative and supportive community. I love it!

My favourite art is painting large scale canvases.

I have a teaching degree, QCT and Blue Card current registrations. My experiences range from teaching visual arts at Immanuel Primary School, Matthew Flinders Anglican College, and overseas schools.
