Year 3/4: The Big Draw 2014

Lower Key Stage 2 created large oil pastel drawings inspired by the rainforest and the mural painters of Mexico and small detailed drawings of the animals which live there. 

Year 5/6: The Big Draw 2014

Upper Key Stage 2 concentrated on New York skylines and the art inspired by North American artist Jackson Pollock. Landscapes were made from flicked and thrown paint representing leaves on the trees in Central Park, fireworks and the lights in the night sky of New York. Buildings were drawn using extreme perspective.  As they were displayed over our heads it really made you feel as if you were standing at the foot of the buildings, looking up. Other drawings showed the use of perspective in making the buildings in the distance look smaller.

Key Stage 1: The Big Draw 2014

Europe was celebrated by Key Stage 1.  Many of Europe’s landmarks were drawn on the hall floor and each class reproduced an old master in class, which was displayed in our “European Art Gallery.”
