John Piper

In art, we have been doing an artist study on John Piper who was a wartime artist during and after WW2. He painted pictures of buildings like cathedrals and churches when they were left derelict after being bombed during the war. He captured the devastation created in the large cities and we tried to recreate this in our own paintings. We began by sketching the picture of Coventry Cathedral painted by Piper, and then painted them in his style.
