Visual textures and tactile textures.

This afternoon in Rowan class we have again viewed the works of artist Albrecht Durer. As a class we discussed how by using colour, line and shading Albrecht created such fantastic artwork, which Lillie Jo commented on  " it looks so real, like I could stroke it." The class then found a variety of different surfaces to create textured rubbings both inside and outside of the classroom.
