Landscape Painting

We painted these landscapes with Mrs Shepherd.  The surprising thing is we didn't use paint brushes.  We had to use fingers, sponges, twigs, sticks and leaves.
The photos that make up this video can be found on our school website, where they can be downloaded individually – click here.
