Fruit&Veg Portraits

In Nursery this week our artists have been making great progress responding to the work of an artist. Our Topic is inspired by the book we are reading: Oliver's Vegetables. We looked at these portraits by Guiseppe Arcimboldo. 

He painted faces using fruits and vegetables for the different features. 

Then we made our own faces using fruits and vegetables. We can name all the vegetables and spot the perfect shapes for eyes, nose and mouth.

 Now, take a look at our amazing work!

Art Adventures in Space

In Reception Art lesson this week we have been sculpting Alien characters using malleable Plasticine.  Inspired by our current book Begu and the Space topic. Our Aliens each have their own personalities, we discussed how the aleiens would behave if they found themselves on Earth unexpectedly! Nana asked whether there was a difference between an Alien and a monster! Caitlin is definitely a sculptress, as she was helping everyone construct their shapes and carefully place the colours together! Well done Reception!
