Summer - Natural Forms
A selection of the following media will be covered:
Drawing media, printing, painting in water colour and acrylic, collage, Photoshop, photography, papermache, card and wire sculpture.
There will be an opportunity to work in pairs and groups and every boy will contribute to the year 8 exhibition.
