Stone Age Art

Stone Age Art

Why did they create art and what did it represent?

I think they created art so they could tell stories of what it was like in the stone age and I think it represents their life stories and how they got around in their life.

The stone age tools?

They would create tools out of stone and wood and they all had different meanings. They made tools for digging which had handles made from wood, they made tools to hunt and cut meat these were made from carved stones. 

Our recreation of stone age art:

What we did?

The first step was to collect lots of sand, then to smear PVA glue all over the walls so that the sand would stick. After they threw the sand all over the wall and then spray painted it to kind of make it look like a cave. 

We then got to paint our own stone age art pieces on the walls using our fingers or sticks. We used the designs that they used in the stone age and painted all over the walls.
