Art

In this week’s art class, the Year5 students each posed in their desired positions and took photographs. We created layers of the same pose from our photos on different coloured sheets to convey a sense of movement. We experimented with various background colours and used a variety of colours for the moving layers. This lesson required a lot of cutting with scissors, which was challenging, but it was also a time to improve our fine motor skills. I’m looking forward to the next class when we’ll get to see the finished artworks.

We kept creating our very own colour palettes inspired by the colours we found in some famous paintings.

Just like artists, we mixed and matched colours to make our own unique palettes.

Through this lesson we could improve our observation skill how to see and find from masterpieces.

This week, our FS2 kids completed mobiles with a fall theme. They first drew squirrels and coloured tree leaves with paint and coloured pencils. After that, they cut them out and attached them to their favourite-coloured strings to complete the mobiles. It was a very proud and enjoyable time for everyone. They also had a session where they used the colours they discovered while looking at Vincent Van Gogh’s “The Starry Night” to express them with paint on foil. Lastly, the highlight and the most fun activity for the children was making bracelets using the initials of FS2 kids’ names. They did a class where they threaded various shapes onto the bracelet string. It wasn’t easy, but it was a fun time to improve our motor skills. After completing the bracelets, they proudly put them on and took photos together. That’s it for this week’s class. Have a good weekend!

Hangul Day is a day to honor the achievements of King Sejong, who created Hangul, and to widely promote the beauty and importance of the Korean script. King Sejong designed Hangul as a replacement for the complex Chinese characters that were previously used, making it easy for all people to learn. That’s why Hangul is very simple and easy to learn.

This week, HFS students engaged in a special art project using Hangul. They drew King Sejong, and some even used drawings to represent the 10,000 won bill, which features King Sejong. They also created various designs using Hangul consonants and vowels, reflecting on the meaningful significance of Hangul Day.

It was a valuable time for HFS students, as they got to learn more about South Korea, the host country.

We also designed images representing kindness on our kindness bags.

Furthermore, we also learned about the habitat of parrots and spent time closely observing actual parrot photos to develop for our observation drawing skills. It’s not easy to describe to draw in detail, but all the students in Year 3-4 completed drawings that reflected their individual personalities. Next week, we will learn how to apply colours using watercolour techniques.

This week, our FS2 friends worked on creating a beautiful autumn mobile.

They drew lovely pictures of squirrels and autumn leaves. Since these drawings were a bit challenging, FS2 friends started by sketching them on a whiteboard, following my guidance. Afterward, we carefully transferred the drawings onto blank sheets of paper.

The result? Absolutely stunning drawings were born! Our friends did an amazing job, and I was so impressed with their creations.

Next week, we’ll add some colours to our drawings, and then we’ll use strings to make our mobiles.

I can’t wait to see how FS2 friends’ artwork turns out. Thank you, everyone, for doing such a great job this week!

This week, we looked at a painting which is called ‘The Red Room’ by Henri Matisse.

In ‘The Red Room,’ we saw a room that was painted mostly in a bright and exciting color: red! It’s like a room full of energy and happiness.

Inside this red room, there were so many interesting things to find. We spotted a table, some chairs, a colorful carpet on the floor, and even a lovely plant near the window. Everything in the room looked cheerful and lively because of that beautiful red color.

After looking at the painting, our Y1-2 kids did something super cool. They each sketched a part of the big template of that picture I prepared. Their drawings were amazing!

Once we finished sketching, we put all their drawings together like pieces of a puzzle to make a big, beautiful picture. It was such a fun activity, and everyone did an awesome job!

Next week, we’re going to add colors to our drawings, and it’s going to be even more exciting. Great job, little artists!

This week, we had a fantastic time exploring Korean moon jar paintings! These special paintings are usually found on the surface of moon jars, and they are filled with all sorts of amazing designs and patterns.

Imagine colorful flowers, beautiful trees, cute animals, and patterns that make you feel happy and peaceful. These paintings are like magic for your eyes!

One special flower we learned about is the peony. It’s big, beautiful, and it means something really cool. Due to its large size and beauty, the peony is considered a symbol of abundance and prosperity. It is frequently depicted in artworks and paintings to symbolize wealth and affluence. The flower’s lush appearance is associated with a positive message of prosperity.

We got to create our own Korean moon jar paintings, and guess what? We used peonies as our inspiration! Each one of us made our painting in our very own style, so they’re all unique and amazing.

It’s been an incredible journey learning about these beautiful paintings and making our own. Art is like magic, and we are the artists! Keep up the awesome work, everyone!
