Y tree drawings

Yesterday we had fun with a 'tree drawing' lesson. We decided to create our very own 'Faraway trees' (from the Enchanted Wood). 

These trees are called Y trees because you draw them using lots of capital Y's. This lesson was made a lot easier using our new camera because students could watch Mrs Thorburn on her paper and then do something similar on their own.

Students drew their Y tree outlines in pencil first. They then picked one felt pen to trace over all the lines. We are now at the point where we are adding some depth to our drawings using an oil pastel.
