Welcome to our weekend art challenge results for our Peace and Quiet challenge. We have been very relaxed this week watching all of the lovely peaceful artwork appear on our facebook group and in our inbox. Some very beautiful and creative ideas. We particularly love the feature image this week by student Lynne Bagnal. You can see the full image at the bottom of the page. Lynne said…
My ‘peace and quiet’ for the weekend challenge, started with some mindfulness drawing as that for me is peaceful and quiet. Mindfulness drawing involves closing your eyes, focusing on your breath in and out and letting you pencil hand do it’s thing. I liked the shapes that were created and decided to add a bit of colour to the shapes… Lynne Bagnall
We hope that everyone enjoyed viewing the artwork below and stay tuned for a very mystical challenge tomorrow!
