Exhibition

Yesterday afternoon all participants that join the cultural manifestation at Wilhelminapark gathered to verify if everything is prepared and if everybody knows where to do what. We have decided not to bother about the beamer, television problem to show the slideshow of our pictures, but to just only have the painting exhibited. On this picture you can see how high this square will be.

For the children that were absent

This is the schoolboard at the Golden Rockschool where we started the project. As you can see, Rosalie Lopes, schoolhead, introduced us by drawing her own self portrait.

We ended the project at that same school. We invited the children that were absent when we visited their school and we had a little session with them.

Maia Samuel from the SDA school made a very good portrait, see below.

Panels

Here you see what the students at GVP will make. A big wooden box. Teacher Dennis van Hielen will come to the Park on Tuesday with ten of his students to construct this construction. Early Thursday we will glue all the paintings to it.

Tomorrow we will make the final final paintings, there are 10 more children that were absent when we came, we will take them all to the Golden Rockschool and work with them there. Pictures will follow.

Glasses

Most children with glasses decide to make a portrait without glasses. Not Dantez Daniel!

Last group!

Group 8 of the Bethel Methodist School was the last group we had. Somehow they worked longer then all the other groups we had. Maybe because we were enjoying it so much?

Now, when group 8 was finished we still had 4 children of group 7 who had to finish their work. They had to leave the group earlier this morning to go to Wilhelminapark. Dennis Amajan was there to practice the "Koningslied" with the children.

This girl is one of the lead singers for the performance, her name is Madelin Elizabeth Courtar.

Jedediah Belleau

Jedediah Belleau, best looking portrait, most talented painter, we have discovered him on the very last day of our project.

Today, last day, we also discovered most talented teacher, teacher Yannick of this same group 8.

We now have 380 portraits, we are missing only six children who were absent. We will see to it that they too make a portrait before the 15th.
