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.
