Intricately painted faces, cows and dramatic scenery are all on display at a youth art exhibition.
The 13th annual Youth Art Exhibition has opened at the Europa Gallery in Sutton Central Library.
The show is open to all schools in the borough including those that cater for students with learning difficulties, physical difficulties and behavioural issues.
The wide-range of work featured in the exhibition includes photography, sculpture and ceramics.
SCOLA’s programme manager for creative studies, art, craft and design, Angela Williams, said: “SCOLA and Sutton Arts Council are keen to encourage people of all ages to enjoy the arts.
“This exhibition gives the youth of Sutton the chance to be actively involved in a public art display, where they can see their work appreciated by the local community.
“It’s also a chance for the general public to appreciate the high standard of youth art that is created on our doorstep – and to acknowledge the huge effort they have put into their work."
The artwork will be on display between Tuesday, February 5 and Thursday 14 February.
