As part of our learning about Autumn at the end of term, some of the children looked at the work of the artist Giuseppe Arcimboldo. We discussed his “Autumn” portrait and learned how he used food to depict the seasons as faces then we used various materials to make our own portraits. As you can see, some of the children have been inspired by learning about this artist and have produced some super work.
Robin: an artist can be a boy or a girl. The artist is Arcimboldo. He made pictures with food.
Kyla: I’ve made eyes with carrots and I’ve made hair and sweet banana for my nose.
Ella: I did a wink for my eyes. The nose is a sweetie banana.
Skye D.: I’ve used bows in my hair and pasta for my mouth.
Fern: the red stuff is the hair, curly hair like mine.
Joely: I used laces for my hair and carrots for my eyes.
Sophie: I used glue and sweets to make my picture.
Leighanna: I used dolly mixtures for my eyes.
