Space Art Preparation Work

As part of our autumn term theme around space, the pupils have been completing a range of art-related tasks in the build-up to their final 'space art' pieces inspired by the artist Emma Lindstrom.

They have explored shape, colour, light and shade, and the examples below are from their observational drawings of planets in our solar system.  The pupils tested out a range of media and techniques both within and between the various images.

Vector Drawings: Birds

We have further developed our ability to create vector drawings by learning how to use gradient colouring and layering of shapes. Work by Alice, Esme and Alfie can be found below.

Creating Vector Drawings

This afternoon, we have begun creating our own vector drawings. 

In this lesson, we identified the shapes that are used to make vector drawings. We now know that each element of a vector drawing is called an 'object'. Then we created our own vector drawings, by duplicating objects to save time. Some examples of our work can be found below.
