This week has been a very creative one in Primary Three!
Our amazing artists started the week by taking part in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival poster competition, where we were challenged to create a design inspired by Edinburgh. This was easy for us as we were able to draw on our prior knowledge from our Scotland topic last term. We chose to use oil pastels for our entries, as we all enjoy the bold colours and interesting textures that they create.
Our next creative venture was a final celebration for Chinese New Year. As we know this year is the Year of the Rooster, we decided to create some bright paintings as a tribute to the animal. To make our paintings more challenging and interesting, we used forks and toothbrushes to create a beautiful feather effect.
We were then thrilled to finish our celebration with some fortune cookies!
This week we also received a nice surprise as we found our favourite pieces of art from last term displayed in The St. Kevin’s Gallery of Modern Art.
We could not be prouder to have these beautiful pictures up for everyone to see.
