This half term, we will be painting a piece of artwork inspired by the paintings of The Great fire of London. Before we paint our artwork, we need to learn about and understand colour. We looked at paintings of The Great Fire of London and the different colours used. We saw that lots of orange, yellow and red were used for the fire and blue, green and purple were used for the buildings, river and people. We learnt the difference between warm colours (red, orange and yellow) and cool colours (green, blue and purple). We then found out about primary colours and how we could mix two primary colours to make secondary colours. Now, we know and understand which colours to use and how to make them ready for our painting.
