Etchells Primary School - Woodland Project Part 3

Posted on Mar 07, 2018 By

The flurries of snow last week have prevented all of the children from being able to finish their paintings, but those that have been able to complete them have done a brilliant job! I am really looking forward to seeing the rest too once they are done.

When I was first in contact with the class I never could have imagined how brilliantly their paintings would turn out. I think taking their time to look at the detail in the eyes of different animals, and practice drawing their geometric patterns has really paid off!

Unfortunately the snow scuppered the planned video call last week as well. I am busy beavering away at the moment for an upcoming exhibition, but we will video call soon! I want to make sure we have plenty of time for the children to ask lots of questions, and I in turn have some questions for them too!

I hope all of the children have enjoyed creating their paintings as much as I have enjoyed looking at them all. Their next project is to create a hedgehog in my style (I have had a couple of requests for hedgehogs, so maybe I’ll take inspiration from the children if I paint one!) and I certainly can’t wait to see their finished results.

I really enjoyed learning about Sarah’s artwork.It’s really unique and is very detailed! My favourite painting is the one where the “fox of delights”is facing you.

What fantastic artwork from the children! I am amazed what they have produced. I know Sarah is very excited about this project and I look forward to hearing the comments from the children when the video call finally takes place😀

I have had the privilege of watching the children create these wonderful pictures at school and their results have been stunning. I would just like to congratulate both the class and teacher on an amazing project that has set such a high standard for the rest of us to aim towards! Well done guys and I can’t wait to see the final display – (you may find one or two pieces missing at the end as they will be on my wall!).
Sarah they have been truly inspired and your art work is awe inspiring.

Percy the squirrel

Absolutely love the framed canvas of Percy which arrived quickly and was well packaged.
Percy has brightened up our hall with his gorgeous colours and cheeky face!

Everyone loves Percy

Wanted a feature piece of art for a newly decorated room, Percy is perfect, large high quality print and frame.

Great talking point and very striking

A secret Birthday gift for my 77 year old big brother

I love the art work and would love to see you working in your studio. John had to have Badger, a lovely Border Collie he bought while visiting our late sister Anne Williams, 16 years ago from the farmer at the top of Wasdalehead he had a sarcoma in his left back paw, and didn’t think an otherwise healty dog would enjoy having to run about on 3 legs.
Badger’s son is 15 now and Blue a rescue dog is 4 and go for daily walks in Surrey of 15 -19 Kms so keeps them all very fit, John is bringing Badger’s ashes back to Cumbria soon, he stays at Parkgate .......John is a Cumbrian and loves coming for visits.
Good luck with all your painting and the quality of the print is outstanding......I’m thinking of maybe treating myself soon .
Best wishes, Kate Mann.

Delighted She Was

I recently purchased the Yorkie canvas for my son’s 18th birthday. However, prior to wrapping it up I showed it to my friend who turned an impressive shade of envious green. Knowing that her birthday was approaching I surreptitiously narrowed the field down to Xander being her favourite and ordered it. Her face was split from ear to ear with the world’s largest smile that day when she saw it. My son on the other hand, also not knowing what I had purchased, mouthed the word, “wow” before going green with envy and vowing to steal it. She does not yet know where Xander’s resting place will be in her house but it will require a complete redecoration of whichever room. In the meantime, here he is on my mantelpiece.

A striking picture

Mr Bojangles looks great watching us from one of the feature walls in our lounge. We’ve just had it decorated in coastal blue colours and Mr Bojangles is the perfect colour for the room adding colour and depth. It’s a very striking picture and perfect for us as cat lovers
