What an absolutely lovely set of responses to this weekend’s art challenge! We asked you to push yourselves with a limited palette, using just reds and pinks. Everyone has worked so hard on this challenge and you can see the amazing results below. Some ingenious pieces too and we love Lucy’s tissue paper collage! Remember these challenges don’t always need to be paint or pencils!
A huge thank you to every student who took part. It’s always a joy to see how each of you interprets a theme in such unique ways, and this week was no exception. Your enthusiasm and talent make these challenges what they are. Great community moments and real creative boosts.
Don’t forget another Weekend Art Challenge launches tomorrow so tidy your desks, put your thinking caps on, think outside the box…and get ready!
