Painting in the style of Angie Lewin

Angie Lewin is a print artist who uses simple geometric shapes inspired from plants and flowers to create her pieces. We looked at her work and at the water colour flowers we had drawn and then created our own pieces. We used mixed media, which included oil pastels, black pen and water colours. We looked at the colour wheel and chose either complementary or harmonious colours to complete our pictures. This time we were working on a much larger scale than our first piece. So, we have been practising our skills of working on a variety of scales, identifying where colours fall on the colour wheel, choosing the right brush for the task and finding out about and exploring the work of an artist. Take a look at some of our work.

Adding…..

This week in numeracy we have been revisiting addition. We can now rename in the ones and tens column, with some of able to rename in the hundreds and thousands column too! We have been solving lots of problems that use our addition skills. It made us think quite hard.
