This resource provides over 30 black and white abstract images. They have been designed to allow colour to be added in a variety of ways. Some students might like to develop “realistic” pictures of actual objects or scenes by thinking carefully about which sections to apply colour to. Other students might want to use the images as a basis for pattern work, or simply apply colour in a random way. Colour can be applied using pencil crayon, felt tip or even paint. If using paint make sure that the images are printed onto appropriately robust paper. This resource is ideal for use as an extension activity towards the end of a main project.
