Making a Sequential Pattern By Karla

1. Are you pleased with your artwork? Why / why not?

Yes, and No. I like how it turned out with all the patterns and colours but

good enough.

Painting the bits that are in full detail.

3. What could you adapt / modify with your artwork? Painting and adding more
layers on and maybe using more colours and patterns.

A very small and thin brush. It really helped me to get through the hard to reach
places.

5. If you were to teach a new person how to create your artwork under your
theme (Romero Britto) what would be the teaching points / tips?

1. Stay in line with the romero britto theme

Making a sequential pattern -

Romero Britto

1. Are you pleased with your artwork? Why / why not?

Yes because It looked amazing after I had completed my artwork,

and it had a lot of different patterns, warm colours and it was really 

fun to do.

2. What was challenging when you did your sequential pattern artwork?

It was quite hard to paint the small patterns, it was challenging because the
majority patterns were all tiny so it was hard to try and paint without
going over the bold lines.

3. What could you adapt / modify with your artwork?

I would add much bigger and better patterns so it would be 

easier to paint. If you were to look from far it would be nice 

and bold.

4. Who / what helped you with your sequential pattern artwork?

Some of the presentation on senior hub site that Miss Paton 

put up, I also searched up some of Romero Britto's artwork 

and I got some ideas from it and I added it into my piece of art.

5. If you were to teach a new person how to create your artwork under your
theme (Romero Britto) what would be the teaching points / tips?

• Create lots of sequential patterns

• Do patterns that are based around what your current theme
• Repeat some of the colours you use
• Use warm and bright colours.
• Make your patterns nice and bold for others to see

6. What have you learnt about this process?

To do big and bold patterns. Be more creative with what patterns 

I do. Also to take my time when I paint so I don’t ruin my artwork. 

Paint within the lines.

The Years 6, 7 & 8 students were given the task to create a Romero Britto themed artwork. Romero Britto is an Italian Artist who uses thick black lines, block colours and plenty of patterning.
