For art today, you are going to be drawing a family member or pet so for English I thought you could write an acrostic poem using the name of the person you are going to be drawing later. Remember, in an acrostic poem the first letter of each line spells a word. The word is the subject of the poem.

For example if you were writing a poem about Peter, you would set your poem up like this:

Probably my favourite friend
Everyone recognises his laugh

Art Week Day 4

The artist for today is Henri Matisse.

Henri Matisse was a French artist known for his use of colour and his original ideas. Matisse started to create large scale paper collages. He called the technique ‘painting with scissors’.

Have a go at creating your own cut out collages. Use simple shapes and bright colours. Cut and arrange your pieces before you start sticking!

Art Week Day 2

Andy Warhol was famous for exploring every day and familiar objects in his work, using brands such as Coco-Cola and Campbell’s Soup. He liked the idea of taking ordinary things, for example cereal or bananas, and turning them into art. He did this with his famous print of a tomato soup can.

 

 

Have a go at designing your own. It can be a real soup flavour or an imaginary one!
