Merry Christmas from all the staff at Westbourne School
This year’s Christmas card features a painting by celebrated Sheffield artist Joe Scarborough, created in 2004. The artwork beautifully captures the former appearance of Westbourne School’s Neil Building, long before its redesign and reopening following extensive redevelopment in 2022. Look closely… you might even catch sight of Mr Edmanson in his navy suit!
Born in Sheffield in 1938, Joe Scarborough is renowned for his vibrant and humorous depictions of everyday South Yorkshire life. Inspired by the stark contrast between his early years working underground in the coal mines and the colour of the world above, Joe began painting in his twenties. His unique style soon flourished, leading to exhibitions around the world and a place among the Sheffield Legends in 2008.
Still living in Sheffield on his much-loved narrowboat, Joe continues to paint and inspire.
