Boat Cove paintings

In Y6NL, we have been doing paintings of Boat Cove (which is from a story called 'The Giant's Necklace'). It is in Cornwall. We made mood boards, using different pictures of the cove and trying our our idea. This week, we have been using powder paints to mix the colours we needed to block out the main shapes of our paintings.

After this, we will add details using paint, oil pastels or soft pastels. We will put some photos of the paintings when they are finished.
