We are Artists part 2!!!

Date: 30th Jan 2024 @ 8:24pm

This week we had our second art lesson with Mrs McAffer on Tuesday. We built on the skills of drawing and mark making by creating some backgrounds for our toy pictures that we created last week. We worked in four small groups to create four backgrpound settings - space, forest, city and under the sea. 

We started by sharing ideas about what we can find in each setting on post it notes. Then we used our drawing skills to draw the different objects that would be found in each setting. We included some of the mark making skills such as hatching, cross-hatching and dots to fill in the shapes in the drawings. Finally we used oil pastels to colour in each setting. Each setting looked so affective and they will be used for a display in the KS1 shared area and in the classroom.
