Calendar Art - Inspired by Chinese Cloisonne Art

Every year our Parent Forum organise a fundraising project where the children's art work is turned into calendars. That time is here again so pop in to see your child's artwork. We decided to base our art around our inquiry unit about China and the Olympics.

WALT...
Investigate the process of China's cloisonne enamelling (DI)
Understand the meaning behind popular Chinese enamelling and identify symbols / designs (UC)
Design an artwork using motifs and symbols familiar to the Chinese early art pieces DI
Create an art work using oil pastel and dye resist technique (PK)

Here is our work. Bright and colourful!
