Class 4 were extremely lucky to have GHSS grandparent, art-specialist and former Steiner teacher, Fran Rosenthal, visit for a painting incursion. Fran first gave the children an opportunity to explore how each colour made them feel, and how it linked with various human experiences. Then, given that Class 4’s are mid-way through their Humans & Animals Main Lesson, Fran guided the children through a horse observational drawing piece. The children were so immersed that you could hear a pin drop!

Fran finally modelled a horse-themed wet-on-wet painting, where the children attempted their first animal painting, embodying what they had been learning in their previous Main Lessons. Blake even gave it a go! Although his horse looked more like a dog, much to Class 4's amusement!
