Goodness me!\u00a0 I am totally blown away by this self portrait\u00a0 by Nell (Year 5).\u00a0 She has captured herself as a baby perfectly.\u00a0 Her mum drew the outline, but the rest of the painting is all Nell’s work and I think it is sensational.\u00a0 I especially like the detail she has added in the folds of the blanket an how mesmerising\u00a0 her eyes are.\u00a0 This is a true MASTERPIECE Nell – thank you for sharing!<\/p>\n

For their New Life challenge Josh (Year 6) and Emelia (Year 4) decided to do an observational drawing of this plant.\u00a0 Their mum decided to join in and painted this fantastic picture on the left.\u00a0 It has been very carefully drawn, with lots of great detail and looks suberb. Emelia painted this brilliant picture on the right and it is clear that she looked really closely while painting it because it is a awesome and reminds me of Van Gogh’s ‘Sunflowers’.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Josh went slightly ‘off-piste’ and did an observational drawing of this model car.\u00a0 However, he is totally forgiven because he has done a sensational job and it looks fantastic.\u00a0 I can see that he has also looked very carefully at every detail because the finished painting is spot on! Stunning work Josh – very well done!\u00a0 It is clear that this talented trio really enjoyed painting together.\u00a0 Thanks for sharing!<\/p>\n

Natalia was sitting on a chair for a very long time after her\u00a0 home learning and trying to take photographs of her\u00a0 new friend, which is this beautiful bird.\u00a0 When\u00a0 it kept flying in and out, Natalia was thinking that it is going to have a new baby as it appeared that the bird was\u00a0 preparing and getting lots\u00a0 of sticks and hay to build their nest for the new born baby . What amazing observations Natalia – this is what wildlife photographers spend a lot of their time doing too.\u00a0 Well done for having the patience to take these fabulous photographs.<\/div>\n

Wow!\u00a0 What a busy bee… or should I say butterfly Maisie (Year 1) has been!\u00a0 She did a wax crayon print from the bark of the\u00a0 tree in her garden and then collected a few different shaped leaves which she also used to do a wax\u00a0crayon print and\u00a0 then she put them all together to make a tree.\u00a0 What a great technique and I think it looks tremendous!<\/p>\n

They left them in situ in the hope they would make the next person to come across them, smile! Their mum also said that it was wonderful to be out in nature and the first time in a long time that they all really took time to experience everything with all their senses.\u00a0 She also said that you can\u2019t take a picture of most of our experiences but new life was evident all around us, from the numerous bird calls, the smell of the trees and plants, the sunlight dancing on the woodland floor and the suns warmth on our skin!\u00a0 Well said Mrs Burridge and thanks again boys for sharing your sculptures.\u00a0 Just as Andy Goldsworthy inspired you, you may inspire others – well done!<\/p>\n
