How is your Inktober challenge going? Remember to share your favourite drawings with your art teacher. Mrs Williams has managed to complete the first week of drawing everyday, have you? It’s not too late to get involved…

Year 9 have been learning about contemporary sculpture, we love their tributes to Hepworth, well done everyone @thornleigh

It’s the 1st of October, time to start your Inktober sketchbook, here is Mrs Williams’ drawing for the first prompt. Please share your work with your art teacher… good luck everyone 🖤

Have you got your sketchbook yet? There are still a few up for grabs, call in at the Art Office to get involved… 1) Make a drawing in ink (you can do a pencil under-drawing if you want). 2) Post it* 3) Hashtag it with #inktober and #inktober2025 @tsc_art 4) Repeat 1/10/25

We love the detail, texture and tone recorded by 4 of our year 10 Fine Art students here in these eye observations. Well done everyone! 👁️

Year 12 Fine Art students challenged to record using extended brushes and charcoal on canes, learning to draw with large gestures and break away from their comfort zones! Well done everyone 🍂
