Kids in Oughterard FRC // County Galway

These lovely lasses were part of a group of only four who got to a camera and the magic pogo printer to make their trading cards.


  
                                 

I spent two afternoon sessions at Clann Resource Center with 7-12 yr. olds. Boundless enthusiasm, bids for attention, suprising results.  The basis for the activity was the artist trading card, the subject was a partner portrait or a self-portrait.  Images were combined with descriptive words and included in a format that could be reproduced and traded with fellow designers.

Thanks to local artist Kathleen Furey above!
