Year 2 Art Martin Bulinya

Year 2 children have been looking at the art of Martin Bulinya's African artwork about the Maasai tribe.

The paintings show the Maasai people in a variety of stances and formations. Many of his paintings have very complex detailing into the material worn.

The children in year 2 were inspired to draw their own patterns and used both card and felt to design their work.
