We focussed on the Roald Dahl book ‘George’s Marvellous
Medicine’. The story, re-told by Rick
Mayall on the BBC’s Jackanory programme, started off our morning of activities
based around the topic.
Art- After watching a short film in which Quentin Blake
explains his process for illustrating books, we had a go at our own sketches in
his identifiable style. We used different black pens to find out which suited
his style and found that a fine nib gave the best result. Our next task was to
design a potion bottle. 2d shapes from the maths drawer helped to form the
basis of our bottles. Drawing inks were carefully used to add strong, vibrant
colours. Finally some of us designed labels to add to our potion bottles.
