L.S. Lowry Art Activity for Nursery & LKG | Free CBSE Resource

Discover the magic of historical art with our Art lowry colouring page eyfs core resource. Designed specifically for Reception-aged children, this engaging activity introduces pupils to the distinct style of the famous English artist, L.S. Lowry. By exploring his iconic matchstick figures and industrial landscapes, children will develop their fine motor skills while engaging with British art history in a way that feels accessible and fun.

This Art lowry colouring page eyfs core resource aligns perfectly with the CBSE / NCERT Curriculum goal of exploring and using a variety of media and materials. Through colouring, children learn about colour mixing, observational drawing, and the way artists capture the world around them. Teachers can use this as a standalone creative task or as a starting point for discussions about their own local community, comparing the bustling streets in Lowry’s paintings to the streets they walk down every day.

Our Art lowry colouring page eyfs core pack is set at the expected standard for Nursery / LKG learners. It encourages children to identify shapes, notice patterns in the architecture, and practise controlled pencil grip. To extend the learning, we have included five questions that check understanding and inspire further creativity:

1. Can you count how many matchstick people you can see in the picture?

2. What colours did Lowry use to paint the buildings?

3. If you were in this picture, what would you be doing in the park?

4. How do the people in the picture look—are they busy or quiet?

5. Can you draw a house in your own neighbourhood next to Lowry’s buildings?

This resource is a wonderful way to bring history and art into your classroom setting without the need for complex supplies. Simply print and provide a set of colouring pencils or crayons to let your children’s creativity shine while they develop their understanding of famous historical figures.
