From painter's studies to student's paintings

In this project, we looked at different paintings of Inger Kaurin. With inspiration from one of her paintings, we "repainted" this in our own way. The first year's students at Stangnes secondary school carried out this project.

Inger Kaurin is a painter living in Harstad. She has her own facebook website with art photos. You may also watch Inger Kaurin's exhibition at Harstad kunstforening with the painting "te på taket".

You may see Inger Kaurins originally paintings at here facebook website. Here you also will find the paintings we used in our project: "Kirke" (Church), "Marios" (Mario's), "Blåtimen" (The blue hour), "Punkthuset", (The City Centre Point, building) and "På kaia" (On the quay). 

All the paintings have motives from the mediaeval Trondenes Church or Central Harstad.  As you will see, some of the buildings in Central Harstad have a 'modernisma' look.

We were asked to tell
- why we chose this painting of Inger Kaurin,
- what kind of painting techniques we used, and
- what kind of difficulties that eventually occurred during the painting process.
