Year 8 students from Ricards Lodge High School were among the 8 groups who have attended the "Plastic Lunchbox" sessions with Eco-Artist Clare Misselbrook. They made some beautiful marine creatures; all out of rubbish to highlight the problem of plastic pollution in the oceans. You can see the full extent of the project at www.plasticlunch.com and www.claremisselbrook.wordpress.com and find out ways to save plastic and give your own suggestions with the #plasticlunch on twitter. A wonderful post from Student Art Guide, with many exciting opportunities for using unsual tools and media. http://www.studentartguide.com/articles/inventive-mixed-media-techniques From Student Art Guide: Lilibeth Cuenca Rasmussen’s extreme paintings take on a performance quality: great sweeping actions as hair is dipped in ink; her whole body a painting tool.
