Competition

Here’s a little something to keep the children entertained for a while whilst they’re off school and staying safe at home and at the same time to say a Thank You to the NHS.

What to do

Create a piece of art or colour in the attached picture  – let your imagination run WILD! There are 2 categories – entries using the more traditional approach of paints, pastels, acrylics, pens or pencils to colour in the outline drawing. And a second category – for those of you who want to design your own poster, in any medium, the size must be A4. The theme is THANKS TO THE NHS.

The submissions are going to be judged by a panel on originality, creativity, time spent, number of lines coloured outside of, blending/shading, use of colour theory. Make sure to keep that all in mind when you’re working on your art.

The competition will close on 4th May at 5pm, so you have some time to practice colouring in the lines and to find those items for the collage. Fingers crossed you win!
