About Our Art.

The pictures on this page have backgrounds of sponged acrylic paint. When the paint dried the children pasted on cut out hedgehogs made from the printout template on Mrs Bruner's web page. They cut and curled coloured paper to make the leaves that the hedgehogs were hiding under. Sharpies and felt pens were used to add detail.The photos were taken using a digital camera.
