Oakwood in Bloom, Amazing Art

Year 5 have been busy artists the last couple of days. They have worked on several skills to each produce a fantastic final piece.
- Firstly, we looked at the work of several artists including: David Bomberg, William Daniels, Georgia O'Keefe and Alex Katz. We used the zone of relevance to describe them and wrote a short descriptive piece about the paintings for a blind observer.
- Next we used our photography skills (on the ipads) to take a photo around Oakwood to inspire our Oakwood in Bloom final piece.
- We then used natural materials from outside to make a natural colour palette.
- From our photos we did an observational sketch.
- Then we did some colour mixing using the paint to find the colour shades we wanted to use on our final piece.
- Finally we set to work on our final piece.

They did amazingly and produced some work to be really proud of!
