To create the umbrella the boys worked in pairs building up backgrounds on individual sections of the umbrella by mono-printing through screens. Again they chose warm or cold colour spectrums to complement their deck chair covers.

The pupils had previously each selected a word or phrase from their poems which they then worked on in the software programme 'Bannermania'.

Once they were happy with the results the graphic images were printed out onto acetate and transferred onto screens using a photographic stencilling process.
