Mark making.

Who ever said mark making was boring? That definitely isn't the case here, Foundation students have been having a ball.....literally!

Inspired by Karina Smigla-Bobinski's ADA jazz with a helium ball. A kinetic mark making sculpture, we have been experimenting with mark making ourselves.

We are all looking forward to seeing the actual helium ball on a trip to the Lowry art gallery this Thursday and taking part in a piece of art work, whilst we are there.

We have had a varied mix of results,

And a whole lot of fun!

We even experimented with a spiragraph, twigs, bleach, water guns filled with paint and expressive marks with toy cars.

All in all, we have had a great couple of days drawing the sculpture and mark making. 

We will keep you updated with what ever exciting projects we produce next week.

If you fancy seeing some Karina Smigla-Bobinski artwork, her work is on display at the Lowry for a few more weeks. Definitely a must see.

Check it out.
