Art Autumn 2

This half term we are focusing on art skills. We will be painting, weaving, shading with pencils and creating textures on clay.

So far this half term, we have practised mixing primary colour paints to make different shades of the secondary colours. We applied our skills to create these colourful plates which were inspired by the work of Clarice Cliff.
