Art Club Masterpieces

Here are some of the latest masterpieces from our Art Club. The children were experimenting with colour blending using water colours. This was combined with a study of insects... and a bat! Well done on creating some stunning results.

This was also a great way for our pupils to apply their learning skills. Reciprocity to work together to mix the paints and give each other feedback. Resourcefulness to have the grid lines to help make the drawing easier and reflectiveness to notice how the paints could be mixed more effectively!

"I found it hard at first. It was very easy to add too much water and find that the paper quickly became too wet. Once I had practised a few times I was able to blend the colours more effectively." Deborah Mushonga

"Using a grid made it much easier to draw the insects. We then used the lines to allow us to vary the colours we used." Holly Maskell

"I liked the painting of the dragon fly best. The lightness of the paint made it look similar to a dragonfly's translucent wings" Kie Purse
