With this year the theme being SPACE, we have had some out of this world entries so far that were inspired by planets, aliens, stars, the man in the moon and astronauts like Tim Peake, and all have been created using Collage, watercolours, paper mache, charcoals and chalks to name a few.

There is still light years to think about how to interpret the SPACE theme and what materials you would like to use whether its painting or drawing, photography, 3D, the possibilites are endless.
