Bishop artists making their mark28 January 2023 (by admin) |
The Investigators welcomed back local artist Brian Taylor for a painting workshop linking to their learning in Art and Literacy.
The children worked with Brian to create their own abstract beanstalks (from Jack and the Beanstalk) inspired by the artist Kandinsky. Brian showed the children how to use watercolour paints effectively to create all sorts of marks on their paintings. The children were amazed by what they managed to create and experimented with different uses of paintbrushes, marking with cardboard, sponges and using the water to create its own mark with the water on their pictures. We loved having such an inspirational member of our community visit and can't wait to carry on using all these techniques in our art work
