Art Week - Bridges, Robots and Donuts!

We were given San Francisco as our class focus for art week, based on the cities mentioned in Around the World in 80 days.

The children have done a brilliant job constructing the golden gate bridge out of lollipop sticks, cardboard, pipe cleaners and wool.

We chose to look at the artist Eric Joyner since he lives in San Francisco and uses it’s features in his art. HE likes to take everyday scenes and make them extraordinary by including robots and donuts. I am sure you will be impressed when you see the hot air balloon we made with Helen based on Eric Joyner.

This is Golden Gaters by Eric Joyner.

The children have also used this artwork to inspire them to write a 100 word story which you will be able to read at our gallery on Monday (16th) afternoon. We hope to see you there!
