Day one of the Arts 4 All project at
Kirkburton Middle School was full on and very productive. I am working with 15 Year Seven boys, with the goal of creating two 8' x 4' collaborative paintings which will be installed in the school. The day started with a brief introduction followed by warm-up drawing exercises, one looking at continuous line drawing, the other at collaborative working.

| Collaborative drawing looking at negative space and interlocking shape |
The pupils then moved on to painting in pairs with acrylic paint using rollers, brushes, sponges and card. The idea was to dig around in the process with a view to unearthing imagery. This is a tough concept, but the majority of the group embraced the process and came up with some amazing images.
