Last week Year 3 completed an art project based on the contemporary British Artist David Hockney. The children looked at one of his famous pieces and thought carefully about the contrasting colours and the effects this creates.

They did lots of experimenting with mixing different combinations of primary colours to achieve a variety of different shades. After that they investigated different tools and what effects and textures they would create.

The final part of the project was to explore the landscapes around them and use the artistic skills they had practised to sketch and colour their own landscape. We are super impressed with what they have created.  Fabulous work Year 3! Do you recognise any of their chosen landscapes?
