Year 4 - Sensory Drawings
Date: 13th Nov 2026 @ 2:12pm
Year 4 enjoyed exploring sensory drawing inspired by the work of Gillian Adair McFarland. The children experimented with creating marks through pressure (using a variety of needle sizes) and repeated movements, focusing on how drawings can be experienced through touch as well as sight. They showed great concentration as they carefully built up textures and patterns, discovering that art does not always have to be about creating a perfect picture. It was wonderful to see the children embrace creativity, take risks and enjoy the process of making art in a new and exciting way.
