Klimt's The Kiss.

May 21, 2012 by

Let’s move on to something a little nicer. Remember we were looking at this? Over Friday and the weekend we thought we would have a go at a representation of this picture in…. Hama beads! And here is the finished article. Rather a good piece of collaborative art we thought 🙂 What I loved about […]

Van Gogh Oil Pastel Day

Starry Night

After a quiet weekend, we set off to Zoe’s on Monday for another art day which I had in concept but err… not in planning 😆 Still… nothing that couldn’t be solved over tea and a few books. We’d decided to carry on following the Usborne Treasury book from last time and try aversion of […]
