S3 Art

S3 artists have been working well this week on a range of different tasks for their individual folio projects. This includes textile design, 3D modelling, research, planning, and drawing development work.

S3 are creating their newspaper articles reacting to the declaration of war in Germany by Britain in 1914. As they write their drafts they are looking at newspapers from the time so that they are able to write in a similar style.
