Year 1

In art, Year 1 mixed primary colours to make secondary colours.

Year 3

Year 3 have each created an African sunset with, using warm colours, with a black silhouette. They have mixed colours, worked on blending the paints to create smooth transitions, and have layered a black silhouette on top. Well done Year 3.

Year 4

In art, Year 4 have been learning all about cave art and the tools and techniques people would have used when creating it. They went outside and experimented with different natural materials and how they could be used to create art. They tried everything from grass to charcoal to a mixture of mud and water!

Year 5

In Art, Year 5 have started learning about Andy Goldsworthy who is a British artist known for his sculptures and photography. Year 5 have looked at facts about him and his artwork, and they’ve began to unpick some of his work, thinking carefully about how he made it and the materials used. They began to plan some ideas for their land art piece, inspired by Andy Goldsworthy. They thought carefully about using his ideas as a starting point and then adapting them to make it their own. Colours and patterns were changed along with the type of materials that they could use.

Year 6

Year 6 have produced some stunning sketches inspired by the artist Henry Moore and his WWII underground sketches.
