Last week Monkey boy and Doggie boy attend art camp at heART studio. Monkey boy was in the Real Life Painting( Alexa Meade) class. while Doggie boy did Monochromatic Nature. Teacher Gaz showed the class his own self potrait as a sample and gave them instructions before they were sent of to paint.
Monkey boy painting the background for his canvas
Monkey boy chose light blue for his background and start painting the background for all three canvas. They were told to paint in one direction and fill up the entire canvas with the chosen color.
The completed background
Once Monkey boy has completed the background and it has dried it was time to put on the geometrical shapes that he has chosen.
The cut outs against the painted background.
Next Teacher Guz made Monkey boy do three different poses in front of his camera. They were captured and printed out before being pasted on the three canvases when the background was dried.
touching up on the photo
On the 2nd day Monkey boy learned how to blend colors and painted the photo which was stuck on the canvas to give it a more 3D appeal. Before long the time was up and he had to leave the final touch up for the third day.
drying the sides of the paintings
His pictures were finally done after doing the touch ups on the third day. Now it was just to dry it fully before it could be taken home.

Wow, that’s a beautiful art. I remember when I was a kid, I love sketching and drawing. I even got a perfect grade in our humanities and arts. But when I pursue a technical course, that changed or maybe it’s still there but I don’t have the chance to enhance the talent. I wish one when I have plenty of time, I can draw again 😉
