I was really excited about this book as I love anything to do with theatre. I am teaching my favorite unit in Pre-School at the moment, 'Exploring the Arts'. It always reminds me that I am an art teacher and not just required to teach 4 years to do up their zips (although I see the value in that too of course!).
I love combining the visual and performing elements of the unit. One of our projects will be to act out different emotions. To document their acting prowess I will photograph their facial expressions then use the power of color to enhance the images. These are some of my demos, I have used colored oil pastels over black and white photocopies. When you rub the pastel away a bit it becomes very translucent and allows the subtly of the photograph/expression to show through. I think they fit well into the theme of FACADE.
Six faces, or I should say, six facades of Lydia! How funny! Now my book is really filling up. Thank you!!!
