Year 2 Art – Northern Lights

Feb 13, 2025Art

In Art, we have been looking at the Northern Lights.  We learned that they are also known as the Aurora Borealis.  We looked at the different colours and the different lines/shapes that we could see.  Over the last few weeks, we have experimented with different media such as: pencils, chalk, paint and pastels, and we have also explored a range of different surfaces.  Today, we practised drawing lines with pastels on black card and tried the smudging effect to create a Northern Lights scene.  We discussed what worked well and we are now ready to create our final pieces.
