Wooly installation and easter illustration

So I've been pretty busy the last week or so, which is good, but feel like I need a day just to do nothing!

I had a fantastic time at the school I'm doing a creative partnerships project at on Monday. I was introducing the idea of installations to the group, and hopefully over the next few weeks the group will be making their own.
As a spring board for the children I began by wrapping ribbons round the schools outdoor classroom, and got the children to come and react to it. Admittedly it didn't look like much as that point, and as you can imagine I got a lot of funny looks off other pupils while I was doing it! Though that was cool.
Then i gave the children a ball of wool between small groups and asked them to finish my work off.
The result was fantastic, and the children all had a fantastic time. I got some pretty awesome photos of it too, below are just a couple.




Also just thought I'd share with you a little illustration I created for easter. Slowly feel like I'm getting to the point I want to be at with my imagery, still not quite there yet.
