Tom Fedro Art

We have been studying Chicago artist, Tom Fedro. He creates art with zing and boundless humour. His art is innovative, creative and playful. He combines pop art collage and whimsical portraiture that has a rhythm all of its own. Bright colours, big features and bold lines that seem to be electrically charged represent an exciting way of seeing and experiencing the world through his eyes. 

Our Learning Intention: WALT use painting techniques.

Success Criteria: 

We have used:

Long brush strokes

Both sides of the paint brush

Bright colours

Bold lines

Tints and shades to show light  direction

Have you ever used paints using success criteria like this?
