            This year, Giobanna, a new English teacher, decided to work on this amazing artist. 

Our kids made these wonderful versions. At school, there is an awesome exhibition till September. 

                 Thank you, Giobanna, for teaching and showing us Georgia's sweet Art.

        All Primary kids could choose the painting and the techniques to use;  watercolours, soft crayons, chalk...

                   

   

       Great versions of a difficult painting!!

                              

                                            Wonderful painting full of powerfull warmness.
