The day we were inspired by Patrick Caulfield

We looked at the work and life of Patrick Caulfield who painted very bold and brightly coloured images of everyday objects. The colours were flat and they produced a pop art feel, often focusing in on a small detail.

To start with we id small pieces using a pencil sketch, then going over this with permanent marker. We then used chalk pastels to rough out the colours and filled in the areas by going over the chalk with a wet brush. When these had dried we fixed them with spray.

 

 

When we had done this we each selected one image and then painted this up larger in acrylic to make a really bold and strong image.
