Art 2 Start -Williams Morris

To introduce our Topic for the term, we always do an Art 2 Start. 

This term's topic is People of the Past - with a particular focus on the Victorian Era.

With that in mind, our Art to Start was inspired by the Victorian textile designer, poet, artist and writer, Williams Morris.  Morris is very famous for his wallpaper designs. He created some beautiful designs, the likes of which had never been used before. In fact, the wallpaper before his day was quite plain.  He created designs of floral patterns (patterns inspired by flowers and plants) which were repeated many times by block printing.​

This is what the children were asked to do, and the results were fantastic.
