Anarchy amongst the ranks!!

Ha ha there was nearly a mass walk out of the students today.. We had 3 projects completed and had just started on the 4th, which was the following canvas. They were really enjoying themselves, paint effects done, background stamped, when they suddenly realised all the vines were hand drawn. Soooo was I gonna draw them on for them?? Was I heckerslike..!!! They were going to learn how to do it themselves. Aaaaargh mass horror, a few even stopped breathing for a few seconds.

I swiftly took them through a step by step masterclass on vine drawing to which they were suitably unimpressed. But with the combination of locking the studio door and severe bullying they gave it a go.

And look at the results. Every single canvas had a beautiful hand drawn and painted vine on it. When the canvases are fully finished you wont see that much but but I was suitably impressed by them. Although it was well out of their comfort zone they showed true grit and succeeded. Way to go girls.

They seemed a nice quiet bunch when they arrived yesterday, but that illusion was quickly shattered and they have been giving me jip all day lol. Bet they wont tomorrow when they are knackered and I am working the a***es off them lol.

Tomorrow is gonna be a toughie really, seeing as it is Mothers Day. I just want it to disappear and never happen, but I know how important it is to my kids. To all you mums out there have a fabulous day. To all those with mums, make sure they have a fabulous day. And to everyone else , you are fabulous already, just enjoy... xx
