Found her feeding her chicks in the bougainvillea by my front door. I had to pretend that I didn't see her or else she would fly away. When I came back from holiday she was gone and so were the chicks but the nest remains.

Hello 2012

2012 is going to be another fantastic year! It started off with me getting my driver's license finally. Now I can go anywhere. I just registered for my second year of study at Wits for my Fine Art degree. I just created a facebook page for Art Class Kids. Contemplating making a blog that has tutorials and news for the classes. I have 2 weeks of vacation left before it's time to get back into studies.

Flipbook Animation Project

noreply@blogger.com (Quaymberley Dudley) — Mon, 31 Oct 2011 19:47:00 +0000

My flipbook animation for Design and Drawing class. I wanted to animate an animal run-cycle because I've only made human walk cycles. The Animator's Survival Kit really helped me out. This wolf came from one of my mono type prints. He was originally the Big Bad Wolf from Little Red Riding Hood, but now he is a crazy werewolf.

Happy Halloween!

Just finished my Fine Art exam exhibition. I have so many artworks and no space in my room! This term we did printmaking, a flipbook animation, drawing, painting and sculpture. There are lots of talented people in my class, I really enjoy seeing what they make.

Michael Taylor

I really enjoy looking at the artworks by Michael Taylor. Have a look at his website www.michaeltaylor.co.za, I think the way he paints is beautiful and his use of colours are amazing. I had never heard of him before but then saw him at the FNB Joburg Art Fair this year. He has some great monotypes and I adore his book The Gifted.
