This term we start with collage & mixed media based on the works of the French artist Paul Cezanne. We then step into printmaking taking in the works of the Japanese woodblock artists and Australian artist, Cressida Campbell.

Then it’s drawing in coloured pencils with a look at Baroque art and Danish Folk Art. We then look at observational drawing and watercolours to create beautiful leaves inspired by our very own tutor and award winning artist, Rachel Bolton.

We round out the term with an Australian contemporary focus looking at Jonathan Dalton and his hyper realism where will use acrylic painting with a focus on blending, tone and form. The final week looks at the interesting compositions of artist Jude Rae. Here we will use mixed media on paper (teens will use oils in this final week). Then its onto our mini masterpieces for the last two weeks.

A TERM OF EXPLORATION!

We will explore drawing mediums, including coloured pencils, printmaking, watercolours, mixed media, collage and soft pastels, acrylics and oils (teens only).  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.  

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.

Create a Mini 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 “Still Life” inspired mini Body of Work masterpiece based on the choice of techniques we looked at and developed over the course of the term!
