Leading By Example

Me But Better is such a fun project but it can be quite hard to get into it in a more serious manner, thinking about the kind of skills you are using and also about the kind of photograph you are producing and why.

On Friday, I decided to do a hands on demonstration, dressing up, posing and giving directions to my volunteer photographer.

 Thanks to Beckii for the beautiful spotty dress I am wearing, Caroline for some of the amazing props and Jess for her skillful photography.

Here are the results of my demonstration session. I had fun and learnt a lot, I hope you guys did too!

Friday's Highlights

Friday highlights: Our first external visitor, Jayne Wilson, came in and introduced us to Art Psychotherapy, which is a form of therapy where artwork is used as visual communication. She explained about her progression into this career and what you have to do during training. Jayne also delivered an activity based around Mandala's and below are our results. Can you guess which Mandala belongs to who?
