EASTERN EUROPEAN EGGS<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

ABOUT EGG DECORATING<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Many cultures through the ages have DECORATED EGGS. Notably, it is a very popular modern tradition in the Slavic countries found in EASTERN EUROPE. These intricately detailed and colourful eggs are typically created through wax resist and dye baths. They are created and shared around the Easter holiday. The children created their decorated eggs using black card and oil pastels and crayons.\u00a0 As you can see, they gave their lines a slight curve to shown IMPLIED FORM and created shadows to give the impression of 3D. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The results are simply breath-taking….WOW!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

CANAL HOMES<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The CANAL HOMES in HOLLAND are typically skinny, high and deep buildings that overlook a canal. The buildings typically serve multiple purposes: as homes, businesses and even storage units. Because of their proximity to the water, there is an increased risk of flooding, so the front door is not typically on the ground floor, but seven to nine steps above the street level. Canal houses traditionally featured a pulley system that was used to hoist up valuable goods to the attic so they wouldn\u2019t be damaged by water. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The children created these stunning canal house pictures using Sharpies and watercolours…I think these are absoloutely amazing and really capture the essence of a busy canal city. Well done Year 6!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
