Henri Rousseau




Well, you keep asking me when you are going to use your watercolour pencils and the answer is...NOW! We will be studying all about the artist Henri Rousseau this term and we will be learning how to colour-mix watercolour paints and how to use our watercolour pencils. You can find all about Rousseau by clicking here.
Before we go to Palmitos Park this week I will give you the name of an animal/plant to research. You will be painting that animal/plant in the style of Rousseau for a display outside our classroom. It will look like an advertising image for Palmitos Park. We will add information onto it to explain the adaptations of each animal/plant.
Don't worry, we will be animating but not this week. Our ICT time for the rest of the term will be used to animate as well as some playtimes.
Here are some Rousseau paintings so you can see what his artisitic style is like...
See you tomorrow!

Miss Sam, the page was very good.
I'm very exciting to use the water pencils.

The spelling you put us is a bit difficult!!
