28 June

What we were making/doing:
Using our individual and group ideas of different imaginary characters we were making 3D scenery, drawings and comic strips. We were making superheros, stories about our characters and thinking about what these characters might say or do or speak like etc. We were also having a look and taking home our paintings (dried at long last!) from the previous week's painting-fest. Some of the painted fruit was still alive, but not really that edible anymore...! Thanks to our little artists from june 2011 Art Club for lots of fun and chat about art and other things!

Artists we were looking at:
Jack Teagle
Brecht Vanderbrouke
Jaakko Pallasvuo
Paper Rad

What we learnt:
We learnt about illustrators making use of space and scenery in their images and comics. We also learnt about making scenes in 3D and linking in each others work together to make a group piece of work

Some things we had to say about art this week:
'some of these artists must be crazy'
'that picture has every colour ever'
