Art Exhibition on Tuesday

Remember to come to our whole school art exhibition tomorrow! You can come any time from 3 - 7pm. The students have been working extremely hard and have created lots of amazing work, so it would be great to see lots of visitors.

Here's a sneak peek of part of the Room 11 & 12 jungle:

Weekly Tasks - Term 3, Week 9

It's the last week of the term! Here are the tasks for this week.

Alyssa's Art

This is a picture I painted in the style of Henri Rousseau's parasol painting. In his version he  painted a women in a dress holding a parasol walking through a forest. To create my painting we took a picture of ourselves and stuck it on a jungle backround that I painted. The plants that I painted in the backround are in some of Henri Rousseau's other jungle paintings.The main technique I used was overlapping. I painted the sky and the green in the backround and painted the plants over the top.

What is a good technique that you used in your paintings?
