Year 4 Viking Art

During their art unit, Year 4 explored different ways to create texture, by using sponges, and varied brush strokes. Blending techniques were also used to create different shades of blue. Once all these elements were completed, Year 4 used tearing and layering to create a sea collage, before adding their long ship to the scene.
