Underwater Sihouettes

This term we are learning about wet and dry environments in HSIE. After being inspired by the Bees Knees cousin we created the artworks below.

We learnt what a silhouette is and I gave students free range to create their own silhouette of an underwater animal in a wet environment. Needless to say, I was totally amazed by their creativity! We had sharks, hammerhead sharks, jellyfish, sea turtles, starfish, sea horses and more!

This was also a great lesson for learning about perspective as the artwork is looking up into the sun from underneath the sea creatures.

Have a look at the Bees Knees Cousin for a full description of the artwork!
