Throughout last term, Year 6 explored relief printing. Using inspiration from female artist Georgia O’Keefe, pupils began the project by drawing real skulls from observation using 4B/6B pencil. The children learnt how to transfer their drawings onto card with tracing paper; they were then able to transform this image into a cardboard printing plate. Year 6 hand printed from their plates using three colours. This was a complicated, multi-step project and the work is stunning. Well done Year 6!
