View PostArt at Callerton Academy: Yesterday, Year 7 welcomed Graeme Turnbull from Northumbria University into the Art department for a fantastic workshop supporting their Still Life project. Students had the opportunity to observe and draw from real insect specimens, developing their observational drawing skills whilst exploring shape, texture and detail. Graeme also demonstrated the fluorescent properties of certain insects and how they react under different lighting, helping students explore colour theory and iridescence within their artwork. A brilliant hands-on experience for our young artists! #CallertonAcademy #GosforthGroup #CreatingFutures #Art #Year7 #StillLife
