They will focus on observing colours, textures, and shapes to recreate the details accurately. Students will utilize their shading skills and pay attention to blending and mixing paints to match the shades of grey in their chosen area. The success criteria encourage students to demonstrate their ability to choose an interesting view, sketch the details, and achieve colour accuracy through careful blending.
Each lesson is accompanied by a PowerPoint presentation, which provides visual aids and guidance throughout the learning process.
