4. Winter Trees using paint:
These paintings were very
simple but effective. Here is
how we did it.
5. First we glued a strip of black
paper onto an A3 size sheet of
white paper. Then we used white
paint to paint the trunk of the
tree and some thicker branches.
Next we continued on the branches
on the white paper, using black
paint.
6. We continued painting our branches. Then we used a drawing pin to
scrape out rough textures on the trunk. This was all, a very simple art
idea to show bare winter trees!
9. We began by lightly drawing the
outline of a tree on a sheet of
white A4 paper. Then we used blue
pastels to shade around the outline
of the tree.
Next we used charcoal to shade in
the tree. We blended the charcoal
with our fingers. This gave a blurry
effect, like Winter fog!
10. Next, we added water to white paint and mixed it. We used a
paint brush to flick the paint onto our picture to create a snow
effect.
13. Finally, we
made ‘penguin
cards’ – a really
simple idea for
young children.
All we needed to
make these was
black card,
white paper, glue
and an orange
crayon. Easy!
14. First we folded the sheet of black card in
half. Then we cut out a simple template of a
penguin on white paper.
15. Next we traced around the outline of the penguin on the black
card. We cut out the shape of the penguin. On the white
paper, we cut out the belly, eyes and beak of the penguin and
stuck these onto the penguin using glue.
16. We coloured in the penguin’s beak and that was it!
Simple!
