Tropical Paradise


Inspired by the sunsets at tropical beaches the students created colorful sunsets using and layering dye. They then created palm trees out of cardboard and painted them black to create a sihouette effect. We hope you are transported to a Tropical paradise through our art.

Exploring forests

Taking inspiration from the forests of England, each artist has spent time capturing the bright colors of the flowers on the forest floor beneath the majestic trees. Each artist learnt new painting techniques to create texture and depth. Layering and overlapping were another essential technique used. Impressionist paintings helped to inspire the style of our forest paintings.
