S3 had a blast at @jupiterartland this month were students had the opportunity to learn about #Sculptor #AntonyGormley and view his work #Firmament. Students then got to create their own #polygonal shaped figures inspired by his work!#TeamWHHS #BeCreative #TeamWork #EDUTwitter

A fun morning with our S1’s @ExpressivesW who had to collect random objects ✏️🗝🪶🧵 from around our art department to create these #imaginative drawings! We’ve got a famous footballer @Cristiano, a #JackInTheBox, a #crocodile and a #Dragonfly #EduTwitter #TeamWHHS #YoungArtists

[ExpressivesWHHS @ExpressivesW]

We are in complete awe of our S1 pupils @WHHS_Edin who have worked hard over the last 8 weeks to #create their very own cushion cover designs #inspired by @orlakiely. Students used traditional #textile printing techniques and their iPads to bring their ideas to life!🤩 #TeamWHHS

[ExpressivesWHHS @ExpressivesW]

We are always curious to see what magnificent work our students continue to create outside of the Art Department at WHHS, Maddison in S3 has blown us away with this #Pastel drawing of her friend Kyla’s niece and her pet cat! #AcrylicPaint #YoungArtist #EduTwitter #StarStudent 🤩
