The Arts Assembly

Today during our What is good about the Arts at Upland? assembly  the children proudly shared with the school the art work that they have produced over the past couple of weeks ....

 I promised a big reveal and below are some pictures to show you what the children have been busy producing and what skills they have been using .

 Experimenting with a variety of tools .

 Exploring techniques with water colours.

 Using different brush sizes .

 Colour mixing.

We looked at and talked about the work of the artist  Karen Faulkner.We noticed that she had painted flowers using only one colour and the petals were both light and dark.

We used water colours to paint our own flowers.We tried hard to make light and dark tones using only one colour.

We hope you have enjoyed our Year 1 art gallery .

Watch this space for more amazing art work .........
