Autumn Tree Art

We observed and sketched Autumn trees before making our bigger versions. On a large piece of paper we drew our trees and leaves with chalk. Next we  coloured our trees with crayon.












For the background, we used a variety of materials for effect. Some of us used the classroom carpet, some used the deck and some used fabrics for texture. Aren't they amazing?

Art Week Work

We have had a lot of enjoyment creating our art work for the Art Exhibition. We looked at the art work of the New Zealand artist Don Binney. We painted backgrounds in bands of colour from light to dark or dark to light with green and blue paint. Next with chalk we drew a native bird of our choice after looking at the style of Don Binney's native birds. Outside we observed native plants to add to our pictures. Finally we painted our art work. Come to the Exhibition to view our beautiful paintings.
