YEAR 3 CHINESE YEAR OF THE ROOSTER


Year 3 experimented with Expressionism by creating these roosters.  Students studied images of roosters and used viewfinders to focus on specific areas eg. Legs, beak, tail feathers.  Year 3 drew images of roosters before producing the final work.  Students' art paper was scattered with powdered pigment then sprayed with water.  They used ink wash to paint their rooster.  It was very experimental as the ink wash bled into other colours.  Some students enjoyed the process and final product and others found it challenging as they were not in total control of the paint.  It was an interesting experiment with Expressionism and I think you will agree these Roosters have personality and some have attitude!
