In art P7 have been looking at the artist Jaqueline Hurely.

We have tried to recreate her style using paint, charcoal, chalk and charcoal pencils.

Using these materials we have focused on creating texture for the background before drawing out a silhouette image.

The final effects are beautiful, very thought provoking, well done!

In Art p7 have been inspired by the work of artist Georgia O’Keeffe.  Having looked at her work and discussed her technique pupils spent a couple of weeks experimenting with different paints and drawing materials to try to achieve her technique.  Once confident with the materials, pupils then created a final picture inspired by O’Keeffe.

There was lots of learning happening when experimenting!

In Art P6 have been learning about the French artist Claude Monet and have used chalk to recreate his impressionist style.

We started by mixing and blending the chalk to achieve different colours and tones.  We then layered on top of that with more chalk, trying to add different marks to create the impression of detail.

The class have worked very hard and has resulted in lots of beautiful pictures, well done P6! 😊

We will now be moving on to do a similar thing, but this time using paint.

In art P6 have been painting.

We have been learning how to mix various tints and shades of blue to create these beautiful wintery pictures.  Once the sky was complete we painted our snowman, to which added lots of lovely details.  The final step was learning how to add shadows to help make it look three dimensional.

Excellent work P6 😊

In art p6 have been learning about the European artist Pablo Picasso.

Having looked at and discussed his work,  pupils have gone on to abstract shapes and proportions to create their own self-portrait in the style of Picasso.
