This term, Year 2 have thoroughly enjoyed their art learning. We revisited colour mixing using watercolours and thought about what colours would be used to create a fiery picture. After creating a background for our picture, we looked at the work of artist Dennis Creffield. It was great fun learning how to use charcoal, but we were surprised by how fragile it is. Using charcoal, we drew houses onto our picture, in the style of houses from 1666. Finally, we used splatting techniques to create flames and fire across our pictures. You can see our finished artwork on display in our classrooms.
