Pomegranates

My year 3 girls have made some fabulous still life studies of pomegranates. Using just oil pastels and their observational skills, they blended colours together to make the seeds look all shiny and three-dimensional.

Pomegranates are just fabulous to draw, as they are so busy and vibrant when they are cut open!

Weds after-school class - Indian project

Here is one of the Indian-inspired panels that we have been making. Colour and Mehndi pattern are the major themes in this project. Last week the girls started their panels by overlaying coloured tissue paper. This week they drew round their hands and created beautiful Mehndi patterns to add to the panels. Next we will be decorating the surface with beads and stitching.
