Art & Design

Working from home!

Week 7

As week 7 draws to a close we look forward to the VE Day 75th anniversary celebrations. On many platforms COVID 19 has been labeled as our war, the sacrifices our grandparents and great grandparents made so that we could enjoy our freedom is well worth celebrating. Alt-hough we all have a little less freedom at the moment this will pass, and, is a small sacrifice in comparison.

We are all so proud of our Art & Design students who have not disappointed us with their google classroom uploads this week.

Year 9 star of the week goes to Alicia Rout for her Roy Lichtenstein’s inspired portrait and the year 10 star of the week goes to Sherie Corney.

Many thanks for your continued support.

Stay safe.

pastiche (in the style of) to their favourite

artist.

Some great work produced by Izzy,

For the past few weeks, the students in De-

sign Technology have been experimenting

with a range of drawing techniques that are

used in the design industry. The focus this

week has been the thick and thin line two

tone technique. This is a when am outline

drawing is improved quickly and effectively,

by emphasising a proportion of the outline

with “thick” lines. Further to this, adding thin

lines gives a 3D effect to finish the drawing or

sketch.

Self– portraits

Georgia Lane

Our students are currently studying the

work of the German Expressionists.

Before we dive into their affinity with

masks, students need to understand the

structure and proportions of the face.

Where better to start than with a self-

portrait!
