Art Attack Term 2

My drawing of still life at the workshop by Mr Shaskey.

We are learning to ...

• plan a drawing using the elements of line, tone, texture, colour, form, shape, and space
• use the techniques of sketching, using the correct brush strokes, colour mixing, texturing, and applying a black border.

Student comment: I like my painting because I likes where I put the colours.
