Wild Flowers

The children have been working on the theme of flowers and spring over the past month or so. We created some lovely pieces ( which everyone has been admiring on our display board in the hall!) of wild flowers. 

Our striking pieces were completed using black card, which made the colours we used really stand out. 

We used different shades of green crayons, before adding our choices of paint to our page using cotton buds, and using our pointillism method, stamping the colours above and between the stems. 

Feel free to come in and have a look at them!

Bubble Wrap Printing

The children explored printing through the use of paint and bubble wrap. First, they used a template of a fence which was stuck to their page with sellotape. They then used sections of the bubble wrap to print with by painting on using a brush, and then printing, bubble side down, onto paper. Once the children had made a successful print, they used pointillism through cotton buds and paint to create the effect of flowers behind their fence, before finally peeling the template off to show their white wicker fence!

The children used cotton buds, paint and card to create a pointillism picture. The children looked at a PowerPoint to discuss different artists who have used the method of pointillism in their pictures, such as Georges Seurat. The children first began work on a small picture of a heart to remind them of how they apply the paint carefully to the picture, before moving on to some of the larger pieces which you can see in the display.
