Art

We began our second case study (Art) by evaluating and analysing works of art by various artists including some works by Jonathan Yeo. We discussed as a class What we liked about certain portraits and why. During a gallery walk, we then delved deeper into the choices the artist made e.g. the medium the artist used to create the portrait and why as well as questioning the colour choices and the impact these have on the overall composition. Next, we began to think about why these people were chosen to have their portraits made and, if we were to make our own, who would we choose?

To finish, we researched the artist Jonathan Yeo.

Do you want to make a pizza?

Yesterday the children in Crew Robson practiced their chopping, grating and spreading skills to make their very own pitta pizzas. They really impressed me with how they worked together to support each other. It was lovely to see them enjoying their fruits of their labour too! Great work Crew!

Art slice in MI

We have enjoyed learning about the artist Picasso. We have recreated a snowman in the style of Picasso. We created multiple drafts before our final attempt which we we are all super proud of 🙂

Christmas Art

We have studied the artist Claude Monet for our Christmas art. We have created drafts in our sketchbooks and applied the brush techniques on wood cookies. We are very happy with the final product!

Christmas Pointillism

For our Christmas art slice we have been looking again at Georges Seurat and pointillism.

We started by doing the background which we then left to dry.

We then used primary colours for the star, lights, tinsel and baubles.
