Today as part of our mini Scotland topic, we were looking at the artwork by\u00a0a famous Scottish artist, Steven Brown,. We had to consider how he uses bold colours to create lively and bright paintings.<\/p>\n

We focused on Steven Brown’s well known series of Highland cattle paintings known as the McCoo’s. \u00a0First we looked at\u00a0some examples of Brown’s artwork\u00a0and discussed the unique features\u00a0of each of the\u00a0cows.\u00a0You all shared very interesting points about the similarities and differences between Brown’s artwork and were able to consider some of the techniques which he uses to create his paintings.<\/p>\n

You all worked really hard on your pieces today, which we will complete tomorrow. Once everyone has finished, we will peer assess each other’s artwork, looking at\u00a0its\u00a0strengths and areas to work on. I can’t wait to see these masterpieces completed. They look fantastic!<\/p>\n

Here are a few photographs of some of your McCoo masterpieces being created.<\/p>\n

See you all tomorrow,<\/p>\n
