Charcoal and Chalk

By Walnut Class, in Year 6 - Wednesday, 19 March 2025

Following on from lessons where we experimented using pencils to develop our blending, today we practised with a different form of dry media - charcoal and chalk.

We enjoyed playing with light and shadow by carefully blending the two different media together. We considered where the light would be coming from and where shadows would naturally fall. It was messy but fun!
