Mapping and the patterns in geography

First meeting with the pupils of King Alfred's Academy's elective art group.The schools After-School Elective Programme offers a range of extra-curricular activities on Tuesday and Wednesdays after school with school buses picking up at the later tie of 4.20pm, all very well organised!

The pupils in the art group had already been introduced to the project and have been looking at their own ideas for the LongAbout. Today we looked at maps and google earth images to find patterns, drawing out shapes using acetate and sharpie pens then translating these into cut vinyl to create new abstracted maps of the landscape.
