Junior Artists 18.06.14 - Paper Mache

The Junior Artists this week began work on paper mache models.


Each Artist decided what they wanted to make and sketched their designs on paper first. 
Ideas they decided on: elephant, pig, pen holders, mug & a dream catcher.  


Shredding up newspaper to begin the paper mache models
Balloon blowing fun for the paper mache animals !
 Good fun had by all with the balloons ! A few exploding balloons as well to add the fun.
 
The balloons will be covered in paper mache layers and will be transformed into animals of the artist's choice.
The Junior Artists begin their models having plenty of fun with glue, newspaper and very sticky hands !!






 Pen holders being made which will be painted and decorated after the paper mache is completed.
All busy at work layering their paper mache onto their chosen items they designed earlier.
