This afternoon we had our final German Masterclass. Many of you managed to complete your Paul Klee painting and they look wonderful . We added the background to the paintings using watercolours and it really changed the whole look.

A few of you started creating your own version of another of Klee’s painting: Lemon Harvest. Again, they were looking great!

Well done everyone, you worked incredibly hard on your paintings over the last couple if weeks. Here are a few photographs from today’s Masterclass and of the completed paintings. Let me know what you think of them.

German Masterclass

Today we had another German Masterclass with Vincent. Once again, Vincent introduced you to the work of Paul Klee. Klee was a Swiss-German artist who used different media to create his paintings: oil paint, watercolour ink, pastels and etchings.

Today we used oil pastels to recreate one of his designs. Next week you will be adding watercolours to the background to complete them. You worked very quickly today so next week we will be able to move onto another style of art.

Here are a few photographs from this afternoon.

In Masterclass today you completed your Paul Klee (pronounced “clay”) masterpieces and we had some fabulous examples of his work. Well done! I hope you showed them to someone at home.

This week we had some of P4M join us and they had to work really hard on their painting to catch up …… and that they did! A HUGE well done to you five!

Vincent then showed some of you how to complete drawings using squares. Can you remember what this type of art was called?

Here are a few photographs from this afternoon.

Today we had the first of our German Masterclasses with Vincent. Vincent is our German expert who will be working with the upper school classes this term.

Vincent introduced us to the work of Paul Klee. Can you remember how to pronounce his name? Klee was a Swiss-German artist who used different media to create his paintings: oil paint, watercolour ink, pastels and etchings.

Today we used oil pastels and watercolours to recreate one of his designs. Can you remember what it is called? I can’t post a picture of it for copyright reasons but I look forward to showing off your completed designs next week.

Here are a few photographs from this afternoon.

Watch the video below to hear you singing the German alphabet to the tune of Frere Jacques, as a round. I was very impressed so see if you can sing it to someone at home to impress them too. Well done! Miss McDowall
