I really enjoyed and appreciated the trip to Emirates Palace. I think it was very useful for me as I learnt that not every good painting has to be neat and precise to look good. I really enjoyed painting in the way that he told us to which was much looser and quicker than usual. I am planning to incorporate this into my own project. However I am not sure which I prefer yet, painting freely or painting accurately.

Some of Khaldoon’s art work I liked and some I did not. One of the things that I liked about his work though was that every piece seemed to have a story behind it which made it more interesting and unique. I thought that if every pupil was paying dhs 100, I think that we should have done more.

Perhaps the trip could have been longer so that more than just one piece of art could have been made. Or since he is a photographer he could have helped us to take professional photos of some things in the building or even the architecture of the building. That would have helped us to link in with our projects.

Overall though, it was a very good trip and a fun day. Thank You.
