In Year 1 Art we looked at creating landscapes using different media. We learnt about composition and worked with different art materials to create texture for a project based on the theme of the seaside.
Our beachscape was inspired by “Fishing boats on the beach at Saintes-Maries-De-La-Mer” by Vincent Van Gogh.
To create our beachscapes we used a range of materials like cardboard and foil to replicate the textures found at the beach such as sand, pebbles, seaweed etc. We took some pictures of our finished compositions, which can be seen in the gallery below.
