Prep 6 have been getting creative with charcoal
This week, our Prep 6 artists have been experimenting with willow charcoal, discovering how its soft, powdery qualities can be used to create dramatic tones, delicate marks and expressive lines. They have taken inspiration from Japanese artist, Ruth Asawa, exploring her beautiful, intricate sculptures and the way she transformed simple lines into complex, organic forms. The children have enjoyed experimenting with line, shape, texture and negative space to create their own imaginative charcoal drawings.
