Looking back at a great year 1 art project from earlier this year. The children studied botanical illustration by Alice Tangerini and learned to draw from real plants and flowers. #artistinresidence #primaryart #childrensartwork @Lowerplace_PS

Painting a bespoke History Timeline mural for a primary school. Some panels will display images showing what was going on in Britain at the same time as major civilisations thrived around the world - what a great idea! #timelinemural #timeline

I learned a lot from this process of layering coloured pencils and just focusing on the face. Noticed contours I wouldn’t otherwise have seen in my life drawing class. A1 size @jamiefrost #lifedrawing #colouredpencils #contours
