Analysing artists

Year 6 have been learning about the 7 elements of art: colour, line, tone, form, space, shape and texture and how these are the essential components of any piece of artwork. They have been studying the work of David Hockney, Paula Rego and Richard Brakenburg to interpret the narratives and emotions behind some of their work as well as the elements of art encorported by the artist. The children particularly enjoyed using oil pastels to create abstract art in the style of Fiona Rae.
