Exploring pastels

We have been getting our hands dirty in Class 3 and the oil pastels are to blame. We have been exploring the different textures and colours we can create when we mix pastels together.


Our art work is connected to our Literacy unit on mythical beasts - if you look closely you can see some terrifying eyeballs, talons and tails!

Using different strokes with the pastels we have created dragon scales, bird feathers and snake skin.

If you want to find out how our finished pieces turned out - click here and visit the gallery!
