KS3 Art<br />
Words by Mrs Jimenez, Head of Art<br />
Year 7 have been learning about the ‘Basic<br />
Elements’ of art. Gargoyles and Grotesque<br />
masks were made from Modroc and were<br />
designed on the pupils pulling faces. They<br />
also created movement drawings from<br />
observing their peers on a table. Pupils have<br />
understood Surrealism through their projects<br />
made at home and through their surreal<br />
photo montages and illustrations.<br />

pieces back in school.<br />
