Winged Wonders
During this project children learn why insects are a rich source of inspiration for artists. They develop observational drawing skills and explore how materials, colour and techniques can be combined to create insect inspired artwork. Children experiment with mixed media and Pop Art approaches before bringing their learning together to create, refine and explain a final piece of insect art.
