Year 2 – Chalk pastel Pumpkins

During our art lesson this week, we looked at pumpkins, as this links to the Year 2  food topic.  We had real pumpkins on each table and we explored the shape and colour of them. The children then had the opportunity to experiment with chalk pastels, blending and smudging them and mixing the different colours together to make new colours.

They then drew three different sized pumpkins and coloured them with hues of orange, blending red and yellow pastels. The children then coloured a night background and finally glued on their pumpkins.

The results are simply stunning!
