Do you remember Iris and Tom from the

This time they find a hamper of food in the
Art Cave and get creative! Join them to make
paper cut fruits and veg, have a go at potato
printing and turn vegetables into characters!
Are you inspired? What are you going to make with food? Or maybe you could draw an Arcimboldo style portrait!
Remember to share your art with food with us by emailing a photo to the school office, we would to see how you get on.
Have fun art fans! Mrs Hadley.
