Year 4 have been learning all about famous landmarks in Britain. In our art lessons we have studied the landscape artwork of Peter Lanyon and created abstract paintings based on our local landmarks in Lower Quinton.
Connecting
Peter Lanyon was a British artist who created abstracted paintings based on the views he saw from a hang-glider over the Cornish countryside. The children have studied his artwork, looking at the paint techniques and colours that he used.
Observing
Using charcoal to sketch with, the children observed the lines and shapes from satellite images of local landmarks in Lower Quinton.
Exploring
The children experimented with mixing different shades, tones and tints of green.
Designing
Creating
They sketched their chosen design out and carefully mixed different paint colours to create their abstract artwork.
