As the work develops, it's good to see what tomorrow's designers are up to today.
Here's one of them worth watching.

Almost there
I just wanted to say hi to our followers out there..............thanks!
It's good to know the world is watching, helps to make it all worthwhile. Makes me check my spelling more often too.
This blog is not about me at all, but I would like to comment on how much I have enjoyed this past year. I came to it with certain preconceptions, linked to experience I guess. Yet now I look at at all with fresh eyes. You're never too old to learn it seems and I have my young friends at Carrick to thank for that :) I've enjoyed their company and relished their enthusiasm. I'll miss them when I go. But their artwork remains!
The OPEN ART STUDIO EXHIBITION is during the last week of term, Tues 23 - Fri 26 June. Do come along anytime then if you've time. It's open during the school day. We thought that rather than have a formal opening, we'd just go with the ethos of the studio itself and just be open for all to enjoy. The whole school is invited to come along during Tues 23 lunchtime as well, janitors, cleaners, teachers, pupils.............all of you!
If you can't make it then get in touch and we'll try to arrange a special view for you :)

vibrancy and variety
There is a range of talent here, from wild, textural abstract painting to fine detail, all expressing aspects of personality and taste. Individuality and creativity go hand in hand.It's all about curiosity and creative play, isin't it.
new timetable day June 8th
New timetable day today :)
The new S3 art & design kids were together fro the first time in the department this morning. I brought them up to speed with the exhibition plans and what work still needs to be finished. Thankfully, they all seem enthusiastic. The art studio after school is a real success, where self motivation is the key. This is worth maintaining as it has its own momentum now. Let's see what comes...............................................

the 5 digital panels
These are the 5 panels. Printed using a wide format digital printer at the Centre for Advanced Textiles, Glasgow School of Art, they embody all that we've been trying to achieve: colour, impact, vitality, heritage and youth. Quite large too, approx 4ft x 3ft they'll be displayed throughout the school itself after the exhibition. The beauty of these is that they are so portable and easy to install in wherever seems to be the most approprita spot.
