Your Art World

Pupils from Galashiels Academy and Al Qalam School invite you to make something inspired by this picture.

Picture challenge

Pupils from Galashiels Academy and Al Qalam School have come up with a picture to inspire you. This short video shows how they came up with the picture. Taking this picture as a starting point, use the How to grow ideas resource to think, wonder and create your own unique artwork. You might end up making something that looks nothing like the starting point.

Artists meet the challenge

Find out how animator Kate Charter combines scrap paper and music to make an animation inspired by this term’s picture challenge.
