Over the past three weeks, we have been working with the ladies from Artbase who have been helping us to create a new display for our classroom. Following our literacy work on Roald Dahl's 'The Twits' we decided to create portraits of the vile Twits themselves, in the style of the artist Quentin Blake, who illustrated many of the recent editions of Roald Dahl's books.
We began by making pencil sketches of the couple, under the expert tuition of George and Beth from Artbase. Then, we used black ink to go over our drawings. Finally, we completed the portraits using watercolour techniques.
Don't they look terrific?
