Respond to ideas and starting points. Explore ideas and collect visual information. MATERIALS Explore different methods and materials as ideas develop. Use a combination of materials that are cut, torn and glued. Sort and arrange materials. Mix materials to create texture. Use rolled up paper, straws, paper, card and clay as materials. Join materials using glue and/or a stitch. DRAWING/SCULPTURE/PAINTING Use thick and thin brushes. Use objects to create prints (e.g. fruit, vegetables or sponges). Press, roll, rub and stamp to make prints. Mimic print from the environment (e.g. wallpapers). TECHNIQUES Mix primary colours to make secondary. Add white to colours to make tints and black to colours to make tones. Create colour wheels. Use a combination of shapes. Include lines and texture. Use techniques such as rolling, cutting, moulding and carving. Draw lines of different sizes and thickness. Colour (own work) neatly following the lines. Show different tones by using coloured pencils. Use repeating or overlapping shapes. Use weaving to create a pattern. Use a wide range of tools to create different textures, lines, tones, colours and shapes. ARTISTS Describe the work of notable artists, artisans and designers. Use some of the ideas of artists studied to create pieces. (Matisse) |

Develop ideas from starting points throughout the curriculum. Collect information, sketches and resources. Adapt and refine ideas as they progress. Explore ideas in a variety of ways. MATERIALS Select and arrange materials for a striking effect Use clay and other mouldable materials. Add materials to provide interesting detail. Shape and stitch materials. Use basic cross stitch and back stitch. Colour fabric. Create weavings. Quilt, pad and gather fabric. DRAWING/SCULPTURE/PAINTING Sketch lightly (no need to use a rubber to correct mistakes). Make printing blocks (e.g. from coiled string glued to a block). Make precise repeating patterns. Perspective drawing Use watercolour paint to produce washes for backgrounds then add detail. TECHNIQUES Use a number of brush techniques using thick and thin brushes to produce shapes, textures, patterns and lines. Mix colours effectively. Experiment with creating mood with colour. Include texture that conveys feelings, expression or movement. Use different hardnesses of pencils to show line, tone and texture. Use shading to show light and shadow. Use hatching and cross hatching to show tone and texture. Use layers of two or more colours. Replicate patterns observed in natural or built environments. ARTISTS Comment on artworks using visual language. Replicate some of the techniques used by notable artists, artisans and designers. Create original pieces that are influenced by studies of others. |

MATERIALS Select and arrange materials for a striking effect Use clay and other mouldable materials. Add materials to provide interesting detail. DRAWING/SCULPTURE/PAINTING Use watercolour paint to produce washes for backgrounds then add detail. Annotate sketches to explain and elaborate ideas Sketch lightly (no need to use a rubber to correct mistakes). Perspective drawing TECHNIQUES Use a number of brush techniques using thick and thin brushes to produce shapes, textures, patterns and lines. Mix colours effectively. Experiment with creating mood with colour. Ensure work is precise. Use coiling, overlapping, tessellation, mosaic and montage. Create and combine shapes to create recognisable forms (e.g. shapes made from nets or solid materials). Include texture that conveys feelings, expression or movement. Use different hardnesses of pencils to show line, tone and texture. Use shading to show light and shadow. Use hatching and cross hatching to show tone and texture. Use layers of two or more colours.

Develop and imaginatively extend ideas from starting points throughout the curriculum. MATERIALS Use the qualities of materials to enhance ideas.
DRAWING/SCULPTURE/PAINTING Collect information, sketches and resources and present ideas imaginatively in a sketch book. Sketch (lightly) before painting to combine line and colour. Use the qualities of watercolour and acrylic paints to create visually interesting pieces. Combine visual and tactile qualities. Use tools to carve and add shapes, texture and pattern Use frameworks (such as wire or moulds) to provide stability and form. Choose a style of drawing suitable for the work (e.g. realistic or impressionistic). TECHNIQUES Create a colour palette based upon colours observed in the natural or built world. Combine colours, tones and tints to enhance the mood of a piece. Use brush techniques and the qualities of paint to create texture. Show life-like qualities and real-life proportions or, if more abstract, provoke different interpretations. Combine visual and tactile qualities. Use a variety of techniques to add interesting effects (e.g. reflections, shadows, direction of sunlight). Use a choice of techniques to depict movement, perspective, shadows and reflection. Use lines to represent movement. Build up layers of colours. Create an accurate pattern, showing fine detail. Show precision in techniques. ARTISTS Spot the potential in unexpected results as work progresses. Comment on artworks with a fluent grasp of visual language Give details (including own sketches) about the style of some notable artists, artisans and designers. Show how the work of those studied was influential in both society and to other artists. Create original pieces that show a range of influences and styles. |
