Welcome to 2013 everyone, 5/6J have been looking at Aboriginal Bark painting
during our HSIE unit "Whale Dreaming". We have discussed artists such as Johnny
Bulunbulun and the different types of paintings.
This week the students have completed an artwork inspired by these Aboriginal bark paintings in the style often labelled "xray paintings", as they only use an outline. 5/6J used oil pastels, black paint and then etched their designs using the tip of a paintbrush. What awesome results.
