Artist's of the Month

This is an announcement for the first ‘Artists of the Month’ awards of the year! For those students who are unfamiliar with this announcement; each month we choose several students who we believe deserve recognition for their hard work and effort as they have produced excellent work. A photograph is then taken of their work and posted onto this Art blog so it can shared with everyone. We choose students from across the cohorts and we consider each individual.

The standard of the work we have seen has been brilliant and we have really started the year with a bang! However, this is a massive well done to these particular students who we believe have put a great deal of effort into their work and it looks fantastic.
