Amber & Turquoise Class

Our reception, year 1 and year 2 classes made a start on their Leroy Nieman inspired masterpieces for the Winter Exhibition this week! We referred to our practise work from last week, working in layers of different primary and secondary colours to build up our vibrant lions’ manes. We’ll add the finishing touches next week!

Magenta & Violet Class

Our year 3 and 4 artists began their Ton Schulten inspired canvases. We quickly sketched a composition of horizontal and vertical lines onto our canvas using a ruler, then mixed different shades and tones of yellow and orange for the sky. We then moved on to using blues and greens for the ground. Next week we’ll use reds and purples for the buildings, and complete additional details such as trees and boats.

Maroon & Emerald Class

Our year 5 and 6 artists completed the first layer of their abstract designs inspired by Chris Ofili. Next week we’ll add a layer of pattern using acrylic paint, collage and other materials to finish off our pieces.
