Warm Colours

We were inspired by day time animals with wings- butterflies, dragonflies, birds and bees.

Magic Word: Warm Colours

Day 1: To create our animals we used texta, crayon and watercolour (In that order). We filled in our animals with lines, shapes and patterns.

Day 2: After hours of cutting and pasting, students work was ready to be glued against a background. d Preps did their best at filling in their border with interesting shapes and lines using text and then filled their shapes in with watercolour (warm colours).

Asian Scrolls with a Twist

Japanese and Asian Landscapes

This lesson, students learned that images that are closer can overlap images that are further away. As a class, we brainstormed images that were inspired by asian landscapes. Students were experts as they did a passport to Asia activity last year with their classroom teachers. A rule that students had to follow was one image had to show overlapping and one images had to show dark to light towards the horizon line. Students planned out there images on rough copy paper before transferring their images onto the good copy paper. 

We used watercolour pencils. Some students chose to use soft pastels for their background. 

They look pretty impressive hung up in the art room and just in time for Asian Week at our school.

Year 4 Op Art

I was really excited and nervous about doing this lesson as I feared that students would not understand the concept. I must say that students did an amazing job and put forth a lot of effort. We discussed what op art is and looked at some examples and then discussed what artists did to create op art. We learned that using lines, colour, contrast, and patterns are used create the illusion of movement and vibration.

Students had the choice to use fine liners, fat blacks, textas, pencil crayons and or metallic texts. I also gave students a planning sheet and they picked their best idea out of three.

I love how each student added in their own little flavour. Even the year 5s and 6s were amazed and wanted to get in on the action.
