We will start the Term with a look at ETRUSCAN ART in ancient Italy taking in the Orientalising, Archaic, Classical and Hellenistic Periods of this art. We will work on handmade watercolour paper and stain the paper with coffee before working into our fresco like drawings with ink and pen.  

In week 2, it will be a foray into GREEK & ROMAN ART, specifically Roman busts and Greek and Roman mosaics. We will experiment with aquarelle water soluble pencils to produce Roman bust like sculptures.  
 
Next, it’s all about THE GRAND TOUR, specifically looking at Italy and the beautiful city of Venice.  This week, we will try a Grand Canal style Venetian landscape using a traditional artists paint palette of Yellow Ochre, Ultramarine Blue and Venetian Red in acrylics.  
 
Then we move into THE ART OF THE POSTER and looking at Art Nouveau, Art Deco and the artwork of Australian artist Sylvia Golf. Students will be designing their own unique “poster” taking inspiration from the art movements and Sylvia’s works using watercolour and pen and wash techniques. 

Week 5 will see us look at the STREET ART and the wonderful world of Banksy. Inspired by Banksy’s artwork, themes, messages and techniques including stencilling, students will create an art work in either watercolour and Posca Pens or acrylic and Posca Pens. 
 
And finally, we will look at POPISM, where artists relate in different ways to the legacy of Pop Art, harnessing its ability to celebrate, critique and reflect the world around us. We look at the artwork of Ken Reinhard and try our hand at “assemblage” mixing acrylic paint with recyclables, cogs and wheels and other pop culture references. 

The final two weeks are spent applying all of the term’s learnings into our own mini masterpieces and body of work time; just like a real life artist! 

A Term of Exploration

Our process based art studio teaching is founded in the Great Art Movements, and each week we explore a different era of Art History and Fine Art Techniques!

We will explore drawing mediums together with collage, mixed media, watercolours, acrylic painting and assemblage.  Other techniques will include drawing, as drawing underpins most of our process art techniques. We will also explore a variety of subject matters related to portraiture, landscapes, animals, still life, urban landscapes and the human figure.  

Create a Body of Work Masterpiece to take home!

The first 6 weeks are spent learning various techniques while in the last few weeks, you develop your own Art Through The Ages inspired mini Body Of Work masterpiece based on the choice of techniques we looked at and developed over the course of the term!

All materials, tuition and light refreshments are included.
