Exceptional Renaissance sketchbook work by Year 8's Aleah Perkes, featuring atmospheric blending, chiaroscuro, and studio photography.
We are very proud to share this fantastic A3 double-page sketchbook spread from Aleah’s Renaissance project! Head of Art, Ms Westwood, was so impressed by Aleah’s exceptional skill, careful attention to detail and a thoughtful approach.
Aleah has expertly blended oil pastels and acrylics to create a rich, atmospheric background that perfectly sets the stage for her study. The sketchbook pages beautifully connect her own studio photography and use of chiaroscuro with hand-rendered typography and clear written analysis. It’s a brilliant example of a pupil engaging deeply and creatively with art history.
Well done, Aleah! โจ
