The student will create an artist board researching artists who use natural forms in their work. They will research three artists - one who works primarily in paint, another in monochrome, and a third in print. For each artist, the student will find information and images to include on their board, and create a transcription of the artist's work in a different medium. They will present their completed board next week for their GCSE course.
