Year 1 Art
1. Autumn: Sculpture
In this unit the children looked at the Spanish Artist Joan Miro. They learnt all about his life and specifically looked at his “woman and bird” sculpture. They looked at the key elements that featured in his work - colour, form, shape, geometric shapes, line (curved and straight) before they planned and created their own Miro inspired junk model sculpture
2. Spring: Painting:
In this unit the children learnt all about Andy Warhol. The children explored ‘Pop Art’ and the process that he carried out to create his work. They learnt all about primary colours and then explored secondary colours by mixing the primary colours together. The children then looked at a variety of lines: straight, curved, wavey and zig zag, to create a picture. They learnt about shapes and about identifying them in their work and the work of others. Finally, they created a piece of art inspired by Andy Warhol.
3. Summer: Drawing
