Art Year 1

 

The children have been combining their Art and Design Technology focus to make purposeful models and interesting pieces of art through collage and junk modelling.

As part of our Enquiry into why Norwich is a 'fine' city, the children have been investigating the connections between Norwich and dragons. Lots of the children wanted to know what a dragon really looks like and so they have been creating paintings, sculptures, sketches and collages of what they think a dragon really looks like.

                           

The adults have been encouraging the children to think about texture, shape, size and detail to ensure that the children create an image or sculpture that can help others to understand what a dragon might look like.

 

Children were tasked to create art from the natural materials in the world around them. The children were very adventurous with their ideas and used transient materials and other resources to create some wonderful abstract pieces.

                       

 

                                          

                

 

 

As part of our water enquiry, we looked at Monet's Water Lilies paintings and made our own paintings based on this. We used watercolours, first looking at mixing the colours with water and different colours together before painting our final piece.
