Each child was given a sheet of A3 paper, some charcoal and thirty seconds to draw their partner. These works will form part of my baseline survey and help indicate the children’s development as the project continues. It was very noticeable at Mgungani that the children produced very small drawings, taking several rounds of encouragement for them to increase in size and content. See here for an animation of how the drawings developed as the workshop continued. The ‘drawing game’ consisted of a few rounds of thirty seconds, one minute and one five minute drawing at the end.
