Inspiring Visit to Sussex Sculpture Park

In early October, the Art Department took two excursions with Year 9 to The Cass Sculpture Foundation, near Goodwood. With the year split in two, over two days, they were able to better focus on the drawing tasks set; to capture the sculptures within a landscape setting, which is a premise for their ceramics and then landscape painting projects this year.

Led by Mr Moseley and Mrs Bannister, the groups drew from three different locations over the day, honing their skills and producing work that had visibly, and enjoyably, improved by the final one. The backdrop of the South Downs, towards the sea made for a wonderful set of drawings, that the boys will build on throughout the year, ad hopefully be inspired by later on.
