This task looks at connecting objects in Art and is inspired by Eva Hesse.

Add accents of water-colour and sponge effect background. To convey an illustrative style layer lines and keep the energy playful.
Create the alphabet using creative typography, you will require a pencil, ruler, black and white paint, and a brush.
Experimenting is key for this activity, embrace mark making and have fun!
Mark making is the process of creating a mark using a tool, it is the language of drawing. We all have a different mark making language and our lines and marks are unique. The tool you use to create a mark can be anything you choose, from a stick to a feather.
This example of an aboriginal style painting demonstrates the broad range of marks and patterns available for use on didgeridoos.
This week we would love to see you have a go at creating your own didgeridoo, experiment and have fun!
Explore colourful spirals, lollipop trees, onion domes and floating eyeballs in the style of Hundertwasser.
Create your own composition on any scale, in any media of your choice.
Please also have a look at the examples of Miss Levy's work that she has created.
