Look at  Olivia’s  sensational space chocolate bar advert.
‘Blast off the chocolate bar with popping candy – will pop you out of this world.’ You have done an amazing job Olivia, as it is very bright and eye-catching – Thank you for sharing it with us.

It’s nearly lunch time as I write this and I would love a piece of the moon bar for my pudding!  I love the way Emma has incorporated a rainbow in to her design.  Amazing work Emma and thanks for sharing the picture with us (I would have liked the chocolate too!)

Wow!  This chocolate bar really does look ‘Out of this world’! It is really clear that Emelia has put a great deal of time and effort to produce this chocolate bar, but her hard work has paid off because it looks totally awesome! I wouldn’t be surprised if Cadburys wanted to make this!  Excellent work Emelia.

Just look at this awesome chocolate bar design by Henry.   This is what he told me: ‘This is my chocolate bar design. I got the idea from Star Wars. I created two characters to use in the  Adverts. They are called Rocket ears and blue boy.’ Amazing work Henry and thank you for sharing this.

Introducing the Cosmic Bar…the chocolate creation of Georgia…It really does look and sound delicious. Great work Georgia and thanks for sharing!

Oh my goodness! I am writing this at lunch-time and I’m starting to feel very hungry.  What an amazing name for a chocolate bar and the persuasive language really make me want to eat it.  Well done Riya!

These are the amazing chocolate bars that we made in school. I’m sure you’ll agree that they are ‘Out of this world!’ Some of the children also did a poster or comic strip to advertise their new chocolate bar.

Look at these wonderful snowy owls, that were made by the children in school…they’re super cool!

I just adore this snowy owl that Kiean has created, using cotton wool.  It make the owl’s feathers look really soft and warm. Brilliant work Kiean.

Oh my goodness!  This snowy owl by Chase is just spectacular!  I just love the  fluffy feathers that look so soft and those big staring eyes.  Superb work Chase…well done!

Wow! look at this stunning snowy owl that Rozalia has created.  The two pictures show the male snowy owl and then with a few extra dabs of paint has transformed into a female snowy owl.  What a clever idea!  This is what her mum wrote:‘Rozalia  followed all the tips and made something she wasn’t completely happy with as she wanted a lady owl( as per information she had learnt from a fact sheet) and painted some dark spots on her owl and added some love hearts 🙄😀. Photos of both versions enclosed.’ Wonderful work Rozalia and thanks for sharing!

Oh my goodness – this super, cute owl that Christina created is just wonderful.  I love the silver sequins on the background, which look like snow crystals sparkling in the sun! Christina was helped by her lovely sister Emma…well done both of you on a truly magnificent job!

What a totally awesome snowy owl that Freya created.  I just love the way she has printed snow on the background using bubble wrap.  Fab work Freya and thanks for sharing!

Wow! Just look at this super pair of snowy owls, created by Florence and her brother.  Florence created the owl on the right and decided to make a female snowy owl, which is why she painted some of the feathers brown. This shows that she has really learnt the facts about these beautiful birds. Well done and thank you for sharing them with us.

Oh my goodness!  What can I say… this snowy owl that has been created by Bailey is totally awesome… I just love it!  It is clear to see that he put a lot of effort into this and by the look on his face he is rightly very proud of it too.  Fantastic work Bailey and thank you for sharing it with us!

‘Team Bennett’ have been creating again and the end result is simply spectacular! Mason, Calum and Harry worked together to produce this terrific trio of snowy owls, who look so cute and fluffy.  The boys should be very proud of their work and the fact that Harry isn’t even at school yet just shows what a talented family they are!  Thank you so much for sharing this with us boys and encouraging more family projects.

Wow! What an amazing owl that has been created by Evelyn.  This is what her mummy wrote, ‘We have had so much fun this morning creating our snowy owl. Evelyn decided to make the beak so it opened showing inside it’s mouth.’ You have done a fantastic job – thank you for sharing this with us.

On this page I will be sharing all the art that the children have done at home, that is not part of the work I set.

These sisters never fail to amaze me with their creativity and the variety of art and crafts that they produce is totally inspiring! Look at this beautiful peacock that Alana has made using  blow pens.  I have never used blow pens before, but after seeing this I want to give it a go!

Alana, then turned her hand to sewing and created these stunning flowerpots filled with colourful flowers…so beautiful!

Following in her sister’s footsteps, Amelia then made a unicorn…this is what her mum wrote,  ‘Then it was Amelia’s turn to master sewing with her pink and purple unicorn, it took a while and she found it very difficult but she didn’t give up and her work paid off with a beautiful finished product.’ Great work Amelia!

Then Amelia was on to her next project, her mum wrote, ‘This is her first go at stained glass window Art, practicing on acetate sheets first before we try an actual glass.’  Brilliant Amelia I love the colours.

Below is Amelia’s final project of the week…her polar bear landscape in the style of Ted Harrison’.  Amelia made one in school and then decided to do her own one at home as a ‘secret project’. I love the fact that Amelia is growing in confidence with her art  and practising her skills at home.  Amelia you are an inspiration to us all!

I absolutely love this colourful drawing of an eye by the very talented Liberty.  It looks like it is looking straight at me…sensational! Thanks for sharing this with us Liberty!

Eva and her sister Katherine have created these amazing penguins.  This is what their mum wrote… ‘Eva sketched the penguin that she had to do for her art  in class this week and both girls drew a penguin from a YouTube video. Eva’s penguin was named Humphrey and Katherine’s- Sam.’ Great work girls and thanks for sharing.

Look at this super, cute pair…of penguins!  Matthew and Neve have made these almost life size penguins, which are very adorable.  However, I also like penguins of the chocolate variety!

These two sisters always produce fab artwork.  As you can see Alana has made this amazing ice-cream that opens out to a huge mouth…very clever!

Llama drama!  Look at this lovely Llama that Alana has created…there is a poem in these words I’m sure! It is clear to see that Alana has put in a great deal of time and patience to create this masterpiece and her family are rightly proud of her commitment to complete it Well done Alana on a fantastic achievement.

Meanwhile her sister Amelia has been keeping herself busy, creating works of art on her own.  

This is her very own volcano, which is very well made…

Well, here we are with another Lockdown.  I am so excited because once again I am going to be receiving lots of your fabulous art, as well as hearing your news!

I will be setting Year Group Art activities, during your usual Art PPA session. They will be sent to your teachers who will explain them to you.  However, any questions and queries  you may have  please email me directly, as your class teacher will be dealing with lots of other things.

My email address is:        n.pearson@stpeterswaterlooville.hants.sch.uk

Just like the previous Lockdown, if the activity I have set doesn’t appeal to you then just do another piece of art  and send that to me. From collage to painting or printing to sculptures I just love seeing how creative you can be.  Also, if you do the artwork set and then you do another piece of art then please send that to me too! 

I will be keeping a list of the children that produce art for the Blog and there will be prizes and cerificates awarded to those who consistently send work to brighten up the Blog.  I will also have an artist of the week in each Year Group.

Lastly, if you have any ideas or suggestions for art activities that you think your Year Group may enjoy, please let me know….at the usual email address   n.pearson@stpeterswaterlooville.hants.sch.uk

That’s all for now =…..KEEP CREATING!
