Awesome Aboriginal Art

Our new topic is all about Awesome Australia! First, we researched different Australian animals during our computing lesson. We used a search engine and key words to do this.

Once we found out the animals that live there, we then decided which animal we would like to use for our Aboriginal artwork.

To start off our art lesson, we explored a variety of aboriginal dot paintings as well as the colours, techniques and patterns they used.

After we were familiar with the techniques, we practised how to create various dot sizes and patterns using eco friendly cotton buds!

Next week we will be transferring the skills we learn onto our chosen animal. We are really excited to see the end result!
