Harvest Drawings

We have been learning off by heart a poem by Paul Cookson called Thank you for the Harvest. You might like to ask a member of Skiddaw class to recite it to you!

It mentions lots of wonderful fruit and vegetables so we decided to make some careful observational drawings. First we experimented with pencil and black pen, then we tried out the chalk pastels.

We really enjoyed looking at all the details and adding these to our drawings. Take a look at a selection of our work here, they’ll be more on display in our classroom.
