Developing their work on contrasting textures this term, Year 7’s task was to create imaginary, fantastic creatures to illustrate different emotions. Everyone collaborated brilliantly, and their imaginative artwork is currently on display in the Cloisters, representing a range of contrasting feelings such as sadness, happiness, fear and anger.
