The year 3/4 students have been learning about Henri Matisse and how he invented the art of paper cut collage art. He created large mural size collages from cutting organic shapes from hand painted coloured paper.
Here are some Yr 3/4 Matisse inspired collage artwork.
Great work and very colourful 🙂
The students learnt about the element of line and drew a seascape using different types of lines, then a wash of paint.
Well done, they look great!!!

Activity 1: Notan Art – Japanese art.
Elements of Art: shape
Principle of Art: contrast, balance
You will learn how to make a Notan piece of art and about how shape, contrast and balance work together.
Please look at the elements and principles posters of art under ‘Learning Resources’, so you understand what they are. #Remember darker coloured paper (black, red, dark blue) work the best for creating strong contrast, between the positive & negative shapes.
Materials needed: A4 white paper, dark coloured square paper (13x13cm or 14x14cm), lead pencil, scissors, glue stick.
Place your Notan square paper on the diagonal.
Here is my example of a Notan design you can refer to when making your own. Please create your own designs.
2. Then watch the Youtube video to see how to make your Notan Artwork.
Have fun creating your Notan 🙂
