Eric Carle Inspired Collages

Eric Carle Inspired Sea Creatures

Room 5's author study this term has been Eric Carle. His book the Seahorse inspired us to create our own collage sea creatures.

We painted sheets of paper with bright colours. Then we added dots, spots and patterns to them.

Then we sketched our sea creature. We then tore up the painted paper into small pieces and collaged our sea creatures shape. We used a range of different colours and patterns. Once our creature was covered we put a coat of PVA glue on to seal it. Next  on a separate sheet of paper we used dye to create a background. Finally we glued our sea creature onto the background sheet.

We hope you like them. We think they look amazing!
