It has been wonderful to end this half term with Art Week, especially after all of our hard work!
A big thank you to Miss Jones for organising two exciting workshops with the October Gallery. We enjoyed using inks to create patterns on paper and later in the week Kirsty, the Artist taught us about Rafael Trelles who’s work will be presented in the October Gallery next month.
We looked closely at Trelles work and learnt about surrealism. His wonderful pieces have hidden images and shapes within them. We then looked at mythical creatures which was great because we have been learning about the Ancient Greeks in class and reading some Greek myths!
Using foam tiles, we designed our very own mythical creatures and used different techniques to etch our designs into our tiles. Then, it was time to get messy!
With paint and rollers we used our tiles to make wonderful prints! Our final pieces will be collated to make one wonderful piece of art for the Saint Vincent’s Art Auction!
It was lots of fun to make our prints! Thank you for organising it!
