In Year 1 Art: This week’s lesson revolved around learning vocabulary for different types of lines. Learners made straight, curvy, wavy, diagonal, broken and any other lines they could imagine! They were each given a large piece of paper and instructed to “take their lines for a walk”. Lines started at the top of the page and ended at the bottom. After creating their different styles of lines with a marker they coloured in all the different sections to see how the colours interacted with each other.
In Year 2 Art: Learners used a range of art media such as watercolours, pencils and colour pencils to create their very own sunflower picture inspired by Vincent Van Gogh’s ‘Sunflowers’ (1888)
In Year 3 Art: Learners explored how lines can be explored to make water surface drawings while using colour pencils and artist felt tip pens.
In Year 4 Art: Learners have been learning about ‘Animals in Art’ with focus on animals of East Africa. This week they have been taken through a step by step drawing of a leopard using dry media while focussing on the visual elements of lines, shape and colour.
In Year 5 Art: Learners are currently exploring Celtic typography art. This week they used dry media while drawing or designing letters/names in celtic’s Morris initials font.
In Year 6 Art: Learners have started working on studies of a market place scene. This week they made line drawings of a market scene in dry media.
