# Year 6 relief printing

  ![Image of Year 6 relief printing](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/images/blog/IMG_1781.JPG)  26 May 2021   [Cally Smith](https://bridge.kent.sch.uk/blog/author/callysmith)

This term in art, Year 6 pupils have been exploring relief printing. Using inspiration from female artist Georgia O’Keefe, pupils began the project practising their observational skills and drawing real skulls in class. Pupils learnt how to transfer their drawing onto card with tracing paper; they were then able to transform this image into a printing plate (collagraph). Year 6 hand printed from their plates in three colours. It was not an easy project. I am so proud of you – your work is stunning!
