Year 6 Artwork

/in /by

Year 6 art topic this term was to look at the famous artist Leonardo da Vinci.

They went on to find out that he was not only a famous artist, but a scientist, mathematician and inventor to name but a few of his interests and skills. They have produced some amazing artwork based on one of his anatomical drawings of the human hand. Well done to all our budding artists in year 6. More artwork from Year 6 as they learnt all about the style of perspective to create a display focused on their names. They have enjoyed learning this with Mrs Lunniss and Mrs Knowles can’t wait to see more incredible artwork, keep it up.
