Storm Babet hit us this week making it a little wet and windy to go outdoors so instead we had a craft session. We used conkers to make patterns and leaves to create hedgehogs. We enjoyed rolling the conkers to make patterns, do you like them?

This week we have illustrated our jabberwocky poems using the medium of charcoal. We have thoroughly enjoyed experimenting with charcoal and have produced some fantastic pieces of art. Well done Year 4!

Today we enjoyed using the charcoal to create 3D shapes and shadows. We drew the outline of the shapes and used smudging to create shading. We got very messy but we were so proud of the end results!

Today we have created autumn leaves, we have used wax crayons to create a line drawing. Then using paint we have added colour creating a wax resistant leaves. 

Here are some of the fabulous self portraits that our year 2’s have created! Some amazing look a likes! Well done year 2!

In drawing club today ,our year 1’s used mirrors to study their faces and created their very own self portraits!

Today we took our art lesson outside to become Cave People. We explored using the charcoal to create lines then used our hands as a stamp to creative negative images. We got very messy but had lots of fun! 

Today we have been exploring different mediums. We have used pencils/handwriting pens to complete observational drawings of the objects we collected last week to create replicas of Andy Goldsworthy’s work. Today we focused on continual line drawing and the results were fantastic. 

Today we have practised continuous line drawings of shells! We found it quite tricky to keep the pencil on the paper and not take it off until the drawing is complete. However we were determined to create some beautiful art! Look what we have done.

Take a look at some of the amazing artwork produced by Year 6 Whales this week! We learnt about the importance of typography in packaging design and then experimented with typography using our first names!
