Thunderstorm Art

This term we have been learning about weather. In art we have been making a stormy day art. We got handed a rough piece of black paper. The first thing we did was make a silhouette. We could pick what background we wanted. The options was trees and buildings. We had 5 minutes to draw our background and cut it out. When we were done we went the other class to dye our paper. We got a white piece of paper to put the background on. The colours that we had were light blue, dark blue and black. We dyed it sideways instead of upwards. When we finished that we cleaned the paint brushes. The last step was to draw the lightning, paint the cloud and stick the silhouette on the white paper. The first thing that happened was that you got given your stuff to you. The first then I did was stick my silhouette of my paper. Next I waited to get called up to either do the lightning or make the stormy cloud. I got called up to do the stormy cloud first. We had to use a dabbing technique to make the cloud. We had to make the stormy cloud black. The final thing to do was to make our lightning bolt coming out of the cloud. We mad the lightning bolt with white paint. When I finished I put my paper on the table to dry.
