This Year in Ocean and Sky class we have celebrated Yinka Shonibare. He is a British artist living in the United Kingdom. His work explores cultural identity, colonialism and post-colonialism within the contemporary context of globalisation. A hallmark of his art is the brightly coloured Ankara fabric he uses. His art is colourful and bright and we attempted to recreate some patterns in his style.
After sketching and resketching our landscape images, today we have added colour. We attempted to create the foreground, middle ground and back depth and used our previous skills of shade to alter our paint tones. We are very pleased we our results.

Have a look at our photos from our trip out to day to Bewdley Museum. We were able to showcase our WWII knowledge, learn some new facts, handle artefacts and try out some gas masks.
