Art

Our junior grades have now concluded their experimental lessons and are now translating those experiences and discoveries into finished pieces of art. They continue to develop their understanding of the seven art elements and how they can help enhance their work. Grades have looked at and been inspired by artists and cultures such as Pete Cromer, Bronwyn Bancroft, Persian carpet makers and Japanese cherry blossoms.

Our senior students have begun the process of creating their pieces for our Clay art exhibition. This involves them being immersed in their theme, experimenting with materials, learning and practising clay techniques, planning and designing and finally making their clay pieces ready for firing. Once fired they will then paint, embellish by adding any mixed media materials to complete their piece ready for display.
