Entry Level Art – Year 10

Parent information

Pupils are currently looking at patterns and optical art – they have an updated booklet to work from with extra ideas inside.
Please note you do not have to complete the whole booklet at once and if they have already completed a piece of work with your child you do not have to do it twice unless you feel it will give them more practice.

• Use lots of colour
• Create own patterns that may look like illusions
• Make your work interesting
• Have fun!
