Year 5 are Space Explorers!

Y5 -- Space Explorers -- Jan2025

 As part of our topic this term Space Explorers we are looking at the artist Peter Thorpe. He is an Abstract artist from America who specialises in Space theme art. We looked at some examples of his work and noticed he uses the foreground and back ground to help elevate his pictures. We then planned our own versions of his art work taking inspriation from his examples. Making sure we thought about what to put in the background of the image compared to the foreground. We want our rockers to stand out from the page in the foreground. We had to be sure our colours were not the same on our images as we do not want to the two sections of our picture to clash. We are looking very forward to putting these pieces together in our upcoming art lessons.
