Charactures Unit 1

Charactures are difficult portraits to do as you have to focus on something about the person. One of our students has taken on this challenge as part of his Unit one work looking at the artist Jason Seiler. He has reproduced one of his works and started developing his own.

Symbolism and Semiotcs

When we start to look at objects a different way, objects begin to have different meanings which can be personal to the artist or have a general social meaning. Our students have looked at symbolism and approached it in a variety of different ways.
