K – 2 Artists of the Week – Term 3 Week 10

Year 2 are working through a unit on Still Life and are exploring some basic printmaking techniques. The boys ‘sketch-etched’ their pineapple drawings into a scratch foam plate and then worked through the block printing process to create print. Stunning pineapples, boys! 

Well done to Zachary Messis 2W and Jameson Kang 2W
