Kandinsky inspired artwork

21 May 2021

Oak Class looked at the work of different artists, focusing mainly on Kandinsky. All of the artwork was based on circles. Oak Class had a go at recreating some of this artwork.

Paul Klee inspired artwork

14 May 2021

Oak Class have done an incredible job of creating some artwork inspired by Paul Klee. They really brighten up the corridor!

Linked with our work on journeys, Beech Class learned about perspective and depicting landscapes going into the distance in art. We studied the artwork of David Hockney. After doing our own paintings and collages in his style, we made clay plaques based on his paintings of Yorkshire landscapes.

Planets and space collage

Linked with our work on space, Beech Class made collage images of space, using paint and pastel for the background and marbling and Brusho for the planets.

Paintings in the style of Hundertwasser

Hundertwasser was an Austrian artist who was passionate about nature and conservation. Beech Class studied his art and architecture to link with the work we are doing about Greta Thunberg. We painted our own versions of his paintings with oil pastel and watercolour.

Beech Class Greek Pots

We made coil pots, smoothed the coils and decorated them with Greek patterns.

African Pots

30 November 2020

Sycamore Class created colourful African pots as part of our theme topic (Journeys). They formed a thumb pot to start with and then added coils on top. Using their hands and a range of tools, they created their planned designs and added different textures. Once dry, they painted on top. Well done.
