Art Day - British Artists Study

On Friday 8th September the whole school celebrated Art Day. Our theme was British Artists. Year 1 chose David Hockney. We learnt about his life and looked at some of his famous paintings such as 'The Big Splash' and his portraits. We decided to make our own paintings inspired by his swimming pool collection. Here are examples of our work. These are displayed in the hall, in the classroom and will be in our cloakroom.

In the afternoon, we worked in groups to study another Hockney series of paintings based on his observations of trees in the different seasons. Within our groups, we worked together to make a collage of trees in each season, each group having a different season. These are on display in the library. Photos to follow.
