Here are a few creative Eco ideas u can do with natural materials whilst out enjoying the weather. Next time you go on into your garden, go for a walk or have a picnic make sure to collect and keep some natural art supplies.

Make your own water colours Push berries or other soft fruit through a sieve to extract your pigment, then mix with just a small splash of water!Grind petals, leaves, or other dry items before mixing with a tiny, tiny bit of honey!

Turmeric = orange.
Mustard = light yellow (just buy the seeds and turn them to powder in your spice grinder)
Spirulina = dark green.
Beet Root = red.
Bilberry Fruit = purple.
Activated Charcoal = black.
Arrowroot = white.

Lego family portrait

22nd Apr 2020 missyfashionart Leave a comment

‘ Love builds happy home’.

We have all been spending a lot of time at home with our families. These are the times we all need to be mindful, helpful and caring for each other and the best time to make fun memories with your loved ones. A nice way to display your love of your family and cherish precious moments are through family portraits.

Today we are going to make our own Lego family portraits. You can include as many family memembers as you like ( even the dog).

EQUIPMENT: Cardboard, Scissors , paint , A4 paper, paint/ coloured pens/pencils, paint brush, water, glue and black marker. ( Optional old unwanted Lego pieces, photo frame and glue gun)

Cut out small squares representing each member of your family. Then cut out the same amount of squares but smaller for the top of the Lego head.
Now all of your squares have been cut out paint/ colour in YELLOW ( pets can be coloured anyway you like) . Leave in a safe place to dry place.
Once filled in glue down your heads to represent each family member. Now they are stuck down, paint or draw body and leave to dry.
Now all dry use your black marker to add some detail.
Add a small quote/ family name/ date at the bottom of your Lego family portrait.
You can make individual Lego cards for family members you haven’t seen to let them know your thinking of them.

OPTIONAL:

Collect your old Lego and place around your frame. Once satisfied with where you have placed them use your glue gun to secure ( get help from adult).
Once dry mount your portrait into the frame and find a nice place to display your work.

Eco Friendly Art.

CREATIVE ECO SPRING TERM PT 1 – DESIGN & CREATE

12th Feb 2020 missyfashionart Leave a comment

After a well deserved break students returned ready to get stuck in and get creative. We started the term with a logo design project students had to create a design for a T-shirt and make out of recyclable materials. We then have taken a photo of their creations and will use the images and print on T-shirts in the new term and be showcased in our end of term Fashion show.

The second project students had a chance to use their imaginations and get creative either working in groups or independently creating their own Eco friendly pets. Firstly they had to think about what pet they wanted and the habitat their pet lives in and how they can make their pets out of the materials from our recycle corner. The project was supposed to end by the end of this term but students have worked so hard and put so much thought and details into their designs that we have run out of time on this project so much that we will complete in the new term as they have really enjoyed creating their pets.
