Day 04

Workshop: Designing Life (third day)
Date: 15 December 2008
Time: 4-6.30pm
Participants: Chan Sze Qi, Lai Ming Jun, Yap Kah Man
Details: Designing Life is a workshop to educate the participants on the importance of art and design through any applications. Here, the participants will be asked to paint the gate in front of the nursery and think about eye-catching visuals, support with creative ideas.

It is raining as when I am typing now, I am concerned with the paint just applied on the gate.

The participants were rather funny when painting, being 10-12 year-old or sort, being impatient is mere another common trait. They were applying very thick paint on the gate for the first layer which actually wouldn't work, though I guess it was a perfect time for them to learn.

Old crusted paint scrapped, now is the new skin with more colours. This gate-painting is somehow a pretty big part of the project which probably consumes more days, and the gate also being a big part of the nursery as I am fully aware. An unsightly gate won't do a service.

The entire session for today was just painting the gate (and it will continue until it completes) -after all the more theoretical lessons and small scale exercises on 12 Dec and 13 Dec.

Not too many details. Compared to this Georgia, the pictures talk vividly:

Let's hope the monsoon bears with us and confers us a happy lot tomorrow.
