Through the studio window.. Year 11 GCSE Artists







For those beady eyed out there, you will have noticed we featured a Year 11 class a few weeks ago, but we thought it was only fair to show the other GCSE class. 
Here you can see they are working on their coursework in a variety of ways, some students are refining their 2D material studies and others are using clay to test mask structures, in preparation for their mock examination in Janurary.
