Children in Amazon Class have been learning about the Turner Prize-winning Artist Chris Ofili and his artwork. Inspired by his West African heritage, the artist created his famous work, named Afrodizzia. In fact, he made several copies of this abstract work. Unlike Chris Ofili, we did NOT use elephant dung in our paintings, but built up layers using oil pastels and thick poster paint. We have tried to show the energy of Ofili’s work in our own pieces – and, as you can see, have done a pretty good job!
