Visual Art Update

This week in Visual Art the grade five and six students completed a Julian Opie inspired portrait. 

We saw the fabulous art of Julian Opie, last term at the 5/6 NGV excursion and some of us had a go at the interactive electronic portrait drawing that day too. 

To create our own portraits in the Art room, we started by taking a selfie on the ipads and then used tracing paper to trace simplified features using graphite pencils. The graphite tracing was then flipped over and traced again onto cartridge paper and outlined with black marker. The final step was colouring in, using pastels, conte crayons or pencils.

Have a look a the process in these photos.
