This term in Y1 we are looking at some of the work of Roy Lichtenstein and are studying still life drawing and some aspects of Pop Art.

First we used different pencils and made a variety of thick, thin, curved, straight, dark and light lines, we drew shapes and practised shading and creating ‘Ben Day’ dots inside them. We practised looking closely at shells to draw observationally focussing on the shape, lines and shading.

Once we were happy with our pieces we used the class still life composition to draw our own version of ‘Still Life with Brushes, Shells and Starfish’. Once we had finished the observational drawing we used a black pen to  draw round the outlines and then we painted it in Brusho.
