Year 7 Visual Arts: Colour Scheme Paintings

In their exploration of colour theory, Year 7 students have focused on understanding the principles of the colour wheel. Through this study, they have gained insights into harmonious and complementary colour combinations, which they have applied to their paintings. Selecting individual designs, students have skilfully implemented their chosen colour schemes, refining both their painting techniques and fine motor skills in the process.

Year 8 Art: Work in Progress

In Year 8 Art, students are painting pictures of their homes inspired by the work of Melbourne artist Howard Arkley. At one time Arkley had a studio in Oakleigh, where he painted large vibrant images of suburban life, notably a cream brick veneer titled ‘Triple Fronted’, 1987.

 

 

Year 9 3D Visual Arts: Crazy Cactus Gardens

In the Year 9 Ceramics course, students embarked on an imaginative project titled 'Crazy Cactus Gardens'. Tasked with crafting their own distinctive terracotta pinch-pots, students expertly applied an aged patina using an oxide wash, adding depth and character to their creations. Additionally, they meticulously sculpted small individual cacti using raku clay. Through skillful assembly, these components converged into remarkable sculptures. The resulting artworks reflect not only the students' technical proficiency but also their creativity and attention to detail.
