In this unit I was actually asked to do some work shops by the Charity that supports women who have gone through and still going through domestic abuse. This is a charity that quiet close to me so I thought it would fit right into this unit. I decided on running 2 workshops. These workshops are taking over on zoom because of the COVID lockdown.
Workshop 1:
This would be looking at basic drawing techniques and the colour theory. I have made a PDF which I will included in this post. It just shows different techniques and has some activities at the end.
The out come of this work shop was great they asked lots of questions and we had a great chat about things. It was a great environment to work with the people. I am excited to do another workshop!
If you try out the PDF bellow please show me your outcomes and if you need anymore help send me an email!
Second workshop: Positivity and Affirmations
This workshop is about being positive. My work explores the effects of trauma so it's nice to come back and focus on some positivity.
The activity is to you draw round each hand where the thumb and first finger are touching to create a heart in the middle. On each of the fingers, they will write something positive to tell themselves. Then the heart in the middle they design to represent themselves. Discuss where they can put these affirmations. Such as by a mirror or by the front door when leaving the house.
Once again I attached the pdf bellow
