24.01.2022 A few weeks ago we had a session on basket weaving. This is quite challenging as its so technical but once again the kids produced beautiful work demonstrating their amazing commitment and skills.

24.01.2022 The best part of MAKE Art room is being blown away by the talent and vision of kids imagination and ability. I was so impressed by the latest session of "My Place in Nature" - tree houses that are inspired by nests, using the existing space found in a tree to create form and explore possibilities of view, shelter, retreat and fun. First session was planning and framing, next was cladding and details.

24.01.2022 Hi Folks, just posting some MAKE Art Room sessions I've got planned for the January 2017 school holidays. So excited about these ones!! xx

13.01.2022 Hi folks, just letting you know I will be running 4 classes this term, each is a two week program with a final one week Xmas special! The sessions will start at 4:15pm - 6:00pm on Wednesday arvos. The cost is $60 for the two week program. The first class will start on October 19th. The themes and brief description of the concepts we will attempt to tackle for each class are as follows: Oct 19th + 26th: Birds of Barwon Bluff (structure + form) Using sticks, wire, textiles and... paper kids will select an indigenous bird species to make a scale model sculpture. Nov 2nd + 9th: Maps - A plan view - exploring Barwon river (line, meaning + texture) Using John Olsen, Fred Williams, Alvar Aalto, and Andy Goldsworthy as references, kids will create an artistic piece based on a plan view of the Barwon River. Nov 16th + 23rd: Basket work - making vessels with locally found materials (how materials go together, texture, form) Kids will make a coil basket using locally found grasses and foliage that is reflective of our unique environment. Nov/Dec 30th + 7th - My place in Nature (structure, space, form) Japanese architect Toyo Ito said, "I have always wanted to reduce the gap between architecture and nature." Kids will make a model tree house that explores how they would ideally like to live with nature. Sticks, wire, textiles, and imagination! Dec 14th - The Australian Xmas Special (pattern, form, detail and delight in celebrating life!) Eucalypus inspired garlands decorated in mandala patterning - Everyone is welcome to attend this one, kids + adults alike! These sessions are most suited to kids aged 7 years + but if younger would like to attend they are most welcome. Bookings essential, at this stage if you could just message or phone me to book a place that would be grand!

13.01.2022 Textile seaweed structures - we looked at seaweed found on our beach at Ocean Grove and abroad, taking note of the amazing forms, colour and manner it which they grow. And went from there!

10.01.2022 Block party fun. We had a brilliant time building our city skyline, making building forms from assorted timber block forms, determining a function and detailing building facades with window, doors, stairs and material patterns. Together and individually they looked fantastic, awesome effort!

07.01.2022 Tuesday was weaving with nature, great dedication and skill from the kids as they wove a colour palette from an image of tree bark or shells. Beautiful!
