We were so lucky today to have a special visitor in our classroom. Shumin came to meet us. One of her hobbies is painting and she brought the one that she is working on at the moment. We were amazed at how detailed the painting was! Shumin told us that she has been working on this painting for some time now and uses oil paints. She said that many of the world's most famous ancient paintings were made using oil paints. Shumin said that oil paint is fun to use because it doesn't dry quickly so you can return to the painting many times and re-work it.
TP told Shumin that she really liked how she used many colours in the apples.
SC said that the background was really interesting because it looked cracked.
AM told Shumin that he liked her painting because the vase at the back looked so real.
KT thought the Shumin's shading in the background was great.
Shumin told us that her painting is not finished and that she is not happy with the white cloth. She asked us for ideas on how to improve her painting. We gave her some suggestions and she will think about them later at home.
We really enjoyed discussing Shumin's artwork with her. It was fun to talk with a real artist!
It is beautiful. Sc.
ReplyDeleteWow! That is a great painting. I really love the picture. It's wonderful. I wish I could have a painting like that one. It's so beautiful. I just can't stop looking at it. Wow Room 14, you are very lucky to have a REAL ARTIST visit you! That is so, so amazing. I'm so surprised! Hope Shumin has a good day. Bye. LG
