S2 Workshop

Our thanks to staff at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum for taking four groups of pupils through a fantastic critical and practical workshop.  Pupils learned about a range of historical artworks and different approaches to talking about and analysing paintings.  The afternoon session was more hands on with pupils exploring various mark making techniques and bringing these together to create an acrylic paint study.  We hope to display these works as part of our upcoming Art & Design Exhibition in March.  Well done to all pupils involved, the paintings look fantastic!
