What will my children learn?
During this lesson your children will –
Learn how to combine different processes-painting backgrounds, printing shapes, and building 3-D elements-to create depth and interest.
Handle numerous tools such as paintbrushes, printing stamps, scissors, glue, improving their fine motor skills and building confidence.
Experiment with building up a scene in layers, developing planning and compositional skills, and learn about scale and proportion.
Problem solve independently, making their own choices of colours, textures, designs, and placements.
Be encouraged to add their own details, connecting Lowry’s world to their own.
Learn how to position elements in space to suggest depth- foreground, middle ground, and background.
Gain an insight into how artists make decisions and how combining techniques creates a powerful final result.
