TSA This Week

In Art History this week I worked with a linocut made from a drawing in the Tale of Genji.  I only used the corner of a house so far.  I might add more to this picture and I also have another piece I can cut.  I did what we usually do -- which is to decorate paper.  I'm guessing that I'll eventually end up with a collage about the Tale of Genji made from all the papers I've decorated.










In Collage I also decorated paper -- this time with paints and stamps.  The papers are to be used in our next collage.  In Colour I worked away on the latest exercise.  I'm not finished so I'll have to keep you in suspense about that.  In Life Drawing we concentrated on heads -- which is weird because that was also what we did in Painting.  I was happy to learn that from now on in Life Drawing we won't be using the 3 colours.  Of course the 2 teachers have quite different ways to describe how to draw/paint a head.  I haven't yet figured out how to blend the paints but I was happy that I could make a face out of light and shadow.
