The class then choose some natural forms for their own tiles .
They then painted them and glazed them to give them a finished look
p7 continued their artwork project on Keith Haring by turning the art room into our own ‘pop shop’ the class worked well in pairs choosing colours , poses and symbols to express particular emotions.
P6 looked at the landscape paintings of the impressionist. The way the artists such as Claude Monet would paint ‘ en plein air’ outdoors .
The class created their own felted artworks based on elements from our local environment. The Figgate parks lily pond and wild flower meadow and the sea and waves of portobello and Joppa .
P6 enjoyed the water and bubbles and physicality of the felting technique. There’s not many art classes that you leave cleaner than before!
P7 looked at the pop art of Keith Haring
The class then each created their own Keith Haring T-shirt’s designs.
