Art making and creating...

Recently Year Four has been exploring and experiencing themselves as artists. We used Charcoal as a medium to capture the faces of our friends - with some very artistic and humourous results!











We also looked at the 'art' of creating depth in a painting... notice how our desert becomes a deeper red in the distance and how our trees look different sizes depending on how close or far away they are. Aren't we talented?





Finally we experimented with oil pastels on black cardboard and the effects of using coloured paper to draw the viewers eye to particular parts of our vases.



Well done Year Four... your artworks are stunning! :)





Keep Creating!
Miss W.
