Art - Playing with Paint!

Today we have been exploring using different painting techniques. First we looked at the artworks of Claude Monet and Vincent Van Gogh. We noticed their brushstrokes and how they created different effects.
Then we headed over to the workshop to have a go ourselves!
We tried four different techniques today - scraffito, blending, stippling, movement. We used 'sunset' colours today - these colours are compatible on the colour wheel.





Next week we will add another layer of paint to our circles- building our colour. When they are finished we are going to carefully cut them out and decorate our classroom with them!
