Spring Flowers

To celebrate the start of Spring, students created colourful spring themed artworks. They started their artwork by creating a 3-D table for their flowers to sit on using oil pastels and painted the backgrounds using water colour paint. On a separate piece of paper they drew a vase and a variety of flowers, and coloured them in using oil pastels and watercolour paint. The students could choose to draw any type of vase or flower that they liked and could also include leaves. They then cut out their pictures and arranged them on their background and glued them into place. The end result was absolutely stunning.

Layered Self Portraits

Students in 5-6 N enjoyed creating a layered self-portrait. The students had a photo taken of their faces that was printed out in A4 size. They then used a sharpie and a piece of laminating paper and traced over their portraits, ensuring that they included all the main features of their faces.  On a separate piece of paper they created either a warm or cool coloured back ground for their portrait using paint.  Their portrait was then placed over the background and photocopied. The end result was fantastic and the students are all very proud of their artwork.
