During this half term, we have been exploring art work by the famous artist LS Lowry. We have learnt how and why he became an artist and explored some of his work with a particular focus on his famous picture ‘The Football Match’. We have begun by taking a section of the painting and sketched in the missing section. We have explored using a range of pencil techniques to add effect and demonstrated our shading techniques with pencil crayons and pastels.
