Radio Artist,
Frank Halliday's beach scene. |
When
the Social Action Unit at 麻豆官网首页入口 Radio Norfolk first came up with the
idea of "Art on the Radio", there were a few disbelieving faces
around the station, but after more than 1,800 phone calls requesting
beginners art packs, the reality of art on the radio soon set in!
With the help of Frank Halliday - the "radio artist" those beginners
were talked through the basics of watercolour painting, from which
colours to use, to how to create the perfect Norfolk sky.
Now we鈥檙e asking you to pick up your brush again to tackle another
of Frank鈥檚 sketches.
Beach scene
This time around, he has chosen a special Norfolk beach scene, with
fishing boats, lobster creels and plenty of sea and sand.
Simply transfer
Frank鈥檚 sketch onto a piece of watercolour paper and then just use
your imagination!
You can pick the season 鈥� spring, summer, autumn or winter 鈥� and
you can add people, birds or other features to bring the picture
to life.
Encouraging art
Action Desk Manager, Pauline McLaren: "It doesn鈥檛 matter if you
don鈥檛 think much of your painting skills, we want you to enjoy having
a go and we鈥檇 love to see your efforts displayed at this year鈥檚
Norfolk Show."
