iCollaborate - Markmaking in an Early Years Setting

Today was day one of a fantastic new project at Littletown J.I.N. School in Liversage. The focus for the project is mark-making with nursery and reception age children using a variety of approaches and media. The plan was to ease into the project by setting out my stall and creating a number of images to hook the children into further activity. This plan worked well for approximately 3 minutes. I was joined instantly by a group of enthusiastic young artist who both worked independently and collaborated with me on a number of pieces. Below are a few shots I managed to fire off amidst the organised chaos! A fantastic day and more to come tomorrow....
