My students participated in Inspired by Maidstone Museum; An Exhibition by St Faiths Students at Maidstone Museum.
Students on art classes used the wonderful range of museum collections as inspiration for their work, visiting the museum to draw and paint. Each class selected a winner and a runner up and the results are displayed within the museum cafe for you to enjoy(until April 4) Some of the background work and pieces are included here.
