\"IMG_1074\"<\/a>Last month we told you about Scran<\/a> working with\u00a0Art & Design in Perth & Kinross<\/a>, well here’s some of what we got up with Primary 7, in Bridge of Earn<\/a>. Armed with a mobile art studio, laden with materials the class found inspiration in the work of Jolomo<\/a>.<\/h3>\n

Through a series of research tasks and group conversations the class got to grips with heaps of visual and\u00a0contextual information from Scran. \u00a0They expanded their visual literacy skills, extended their vocabulary with such terms as impasto<\/a>\u00a0and gained a new appreciation of Scottish Art<\/a>.<\/p>\n

To deepen this understanding the pupils then created their very own paintings influenced by the techniques used by Jolomo. \u00a0The class had gone walk about with their cameras to capture the local landscape using photography. Their pictures were then used for each individual composition on canvas.<\/p>\n

\"FullSizeRender\"\"FullSizeRender<\/a>\"FullSizeRender<\/a>\"FullSizeRender<\/a>The pupils were able to explore using new materials such as texture medium<\/em> to build up the surface of their work. Next they considered the vibrant palette and colours often used by Jolomo and mixed similarly lively hues for their own landscapes.<\/p>\n

\"FullSizeRender<\/a>\"FullSizeRender<\/a>\"FullSizeRender<\/a>\"IMG_1099\"<\/a>The culmination of the P7s’ hard work & focused learning was a whole-school exhibition Inspired by Scotland<\/em><\/strong><\/span>, which not only included these great paintings but all sorts of \u00a0arts activity – but more about that later…<\/p>\n

Meanwhile over in Abernethy<\/a>, Primary 7 were busy exploring their locality through Jolomo as well! They got creative with their texture <\/a>too, adding in mixed media & all sorts, to create impressive effects too.<\/p>\n
