Topic:

Painting and sketching

This half terms Art unit is painting, however if you don’t have access to paint, you can complete these activities by drawing or with any other medium you can find around the house. These activities are based on observational landscape painting which could be done in a garden or park. If not, you can paint from a photograph.

1. Colour mixing - What colours can you make? Use the 3 primary colours (red, blue and yellow) to mix as many different colours as possible and record on a piece of paper.
2. Colours in nature - Go outside and look at the colours you can see in nature. Can you try to mix those colours and record them on a piece of paper.
3. Sketching – Look outside - what can you see? Try to draw EVERYTHING you can see. Think carefully: Is a tree the same size as a flower? Is the garden chair bigger or smaller than the shed?
4. Finally, try to put your skills together. Can you paint a landscape? Try to draw the landscape first, then mix your colours and apply them.

Please send me pictures of artwork so that I can post them on the website/blog.
