25.01.2022 I was so thrilled with these wonderful bird prints from Southwelll today ... the students have been consumed with learning about the birds in their local habitat. I especially loved the Boo book owls. Such talented artists.

25.01.2022 and some Phoebe birds. .... Aussie style.

24.01.2022 Tiger workshop in Nan village today! A triumph!! Well done to you all.

22.01.2022 Very taken by the patterns of animals to camouflage..

20.01.2022 The artists have been busy all day today.... pretty amazing!!

20.01.2022 What I love the most is when the wonderful people we work with in Laos create a product that is so careful and considered and they are so proud of it.

18.01.2022 Tiger diorama almost ready for Laos Library staff workshop next week..... then we will see what they create with our beginning ideas.....the very best part!! Our jungle scene is looking rather crowded but if I move the camera back it will be a bit more balanced. Hard to get the size of all the animals in perspective. That has been a challenge. The Big Draw people in the UK created a framework for making a City diorama with background/ middle ground and foreground figures/ buildings. That was a huge asset as we set this scene up. Big thanks to them!

13.01.2022 Proof that without us in the room with them it still gets messy messy messy!!

10.01.2022 The traditional Laos story of the Toad who ate tigers has begun.... yay!!

08.01.2022 The beginnings of a diorama of the Adelaide skyline by Sebastian today. I can’t wait to see it completed ..he is painting the scene with t bag water so that the scene looks old... Some teachers are just too clever I reckon!!

06.01.2022 We are ready.... online workshop on Tigers with Luang Prabang library staff ready to go!!! The wonders of technology. Yay!

05.01.2022 Tiger images ready for use in the Toad and tiger story.

05.01.2022 Starting to think about working with the Laos teachers on an endangered wild life project.... working with them via whatever online tool they can access. This is a fun paper tearing activity that worked on this tiger!! Rachel and I are going to try next week with other endangered wild animals. We will see!!!

04.01.2022 Wonderful beginnings in a challenging context... with only an iPhone in LPBG and two Aussie’s talking very very loudly to either make themselves heard OR understood on our iPad. We had trouble with words such as stripes or length or tall ( not just these!!) BUT in the end visuals with simple instructions to be translated and Chantha placed strategically near the phone saved us. Rachel blitzed it too. All up we were thrilled. There will be more next week! Yay!!

03.01.2022 Nong Kiew Tiger workshop in action today!!! Love Sengdao’s camouflage.

02.01.2022 Love this photo...

01.01.2022 Preparing for pangolin workshop has begun......
