The Grade 1 and 2 embarked on a pattern and printing spree this term. They experimented with as many different ways to print and make patterns as we could fit into one term. They printed through doileys, printed with corks and other found objects. They made repeated line patterns with fine liners pens as well as creating back and white painted patterns. On completion they were asked to create a collage of any topic they liked but they had to use at least one piece if each experimented that they had done. We discussed that a printed doiley could be a lions mane, or a flower or a cloud etc and they went from there. The results were amazing!! I can't say how much I love them. They were colourful, dynamic, funny and thoughtful. It was a real pleasure to see them trying to work out where to put everything and to see what their work looked like when finished.
Below are some of the finished mixed media collages
There was even a couple of 3D works that came of this project like this little guy.
