Tia Perry


Tia is such a wonderful artist to have in the Drawing Time club. Look at these incredible drawings...the detail and the colouring for a start show us just how dedicated Tia is as an artist. We were lucky enough to have Tia exhibit these pictures to the whole club last term, and explain in person how and why she used these subjects, etc. Tia is one of those artists who sees an accident or mistake not as a failure in adhering to the original plan, but an opportunity to change direction and take the picture to a whole new level. I'm so impressed with your drawing, Tia, and am looking forward to seeing what you'll come up with this next term. Congratulations! By the way, Tia, please feel free to add further comments and descriptions to this post, I'd be delighted to have you share your amazing ideas to an audience beyond the girls' club.

Elli

Elli is very experimental in her art practice. If you look closely at the picture above, you can see Elli has actually rubbed colour over the contours of leaves that she collected outdoors. I can see a geranium leaf shape on the left, isn't it beautiful? I love watching the way Elli proceeds with her art pieces, she is very talented indeed!
