Kandinsky Line Drawing
For this piece of art, the year 4 students looked at a variety of artworks using line. They had discussions regarding how the artworks made them feel (happy, angry, etc.). Using some of Wassily Kandinsky’s work as a guide, the year 4 students had to follow a list of instructions in order to create their own line masterpiece.
Gesture Drawing
For this art project, the year 4 students experimented with a variety of different drawing mediums (4B and 6B pencils, charcoal and soft brush). The classes used gesture drawing to capture basic forms and movement. In groups students had to decide on three poses for the mannequin to imply movement and then draw each figure in 90 seconds.
