In ‘Surrealist Animals’ the techniques of distortion in scale and repetition of pattern disrupt the normal expectations of representational animals. Some very extraordinary animal images!

Colourfield Artworks
Colourfield Artworks
In the 1940s a group of artists wanted their artworks to look completely non representational or 'abstract'. They were called the 'Colourfield' artists because they painted in large fields of colour that would 'envelop' the view when they stood in front of their expansive canvases. The Colourfield artists rejected all forms of illusionism (especially perspective and tone) and any hint of subject matter. In term one, Year 7 Visual Arts students have been exploring the 6 elements of art (line, shape, tone, colour, texture and space). They have employed line, shape and colour, tone and texture to create their own Colourfield artwork
