'Fun through Paint!'

>>

Keith Simmonds (Arts co-ordinator - artscope) + Roberto Bono (Volunteer worker)

Session three extended the experiences from session two, particularly regarding the notion of the group contribution and the shared experience of art making. The studio table was dispensed with, and the group sat in an open circle and painted contributions were through foot painting only using specialised brushes. The restricted palette helped focus participants concentration on the practical artmaking and colour mixing became purely accidental and random. Three works were executed, the first being solely a straight forward 'foot painting', the second involved using the 'non-dominant' foot and the third involved swapping seats and contributing from varying positions. The finished artworks were displayed.
