Global Mark Making Workshop at Taurus Crafts.

 

Taurus Crafts had 6 sheep they wanted painted by children visiting the centre over the summer of 2007, each sheep to be themed on a different global continent. To this end I organised the visiting children in small groups to spend 10 minutes a sheep and then move onto the next. Each sheep was themed on a different mark making technique distinctive to that continent.
