At last some interesting work with 'Paint Magic'
For those who don't know, Paint Magic is a primary level bit-map paint programme. I cannot remember ever seeing much that was interesting being produced with this software - until today. At Haddenham Junior School there was a really dramatic large (2 meter high) panel. The image has been developed from small tiles based on a master picture. I really liked it - the colour, normally a weakness in the software, works in this exercise and every pupil has had to work with care to draw the image. It was just good to see the large bright complex panel rather than small scale, crude, mouse drawings.
