Year 9 Art Homework

In art at the moment we have been looking at vintage and contemporary advertising. The students were set the task of recreating a contemporary advert in their chosen media.

Here are some fantastic examples. Well done girls, you are very creative and talented.

Katie Santi-Collage and water colour. 

Amy Blay-Pencil Crayon and fine liner. 

Kimberley Magee-Pencil Crayon and Pencil. 

Shannon Byrne Year 11

Shannon Byrne is basing her Component 2 samples on the work of artist Rebecca Chapman at the moment. Shannon has a distinct colour style which can be seen in her sample work. I adore the bright colours, contrasting materials and use of black stitched flowers over her layers of appliqued fabric. These are fantastic samples. Well done Shannon you have demonstrated accuracy and skill and are very talented. Keep up the good work.

What's in the Box?

I am very excited about an upcoming school trip I am taking a group of students on this week. 4 students who are talented cooks are joining a host of other schools at Salford City College to complete in the 'what's in the box' challenge. The students will relieve a box of ingredients and make a meal to win a prize. I shall post some photos at weekend.

In the meantime, good luck everyone.
