Visual Arts Report

Year 8 Visual Arts

Year 8 students have been learning about Cubism this semester and working on a unit called ‘Through the Window’. They started with observational drawings of the school ground and they then distorted to achieve a Cubist look. After this, they learnt about blending skills with watercolour and oil pastels and added this to their drawings in a harmonious colour scheme. Please enjoy the following artworks by Year 8 VA students: Pranaya Prakash, Sophie Siackhasone, Michael Zhao, Felix Le, Anya Ballu and Braden Chen.

Year 9 Visual Arts

Year 9 students have made some beautiful panoramic lino prints inspired by the Petersham suburbia. After we went on a photography tour around the local area, students collaged multiple photographs together, created a drawing, and then transferred this onto a lino block. Whilst the carving process was somewhat tedious for Year 9, it has been super high reward when they revealed their first prints. Please enjoy some finished prints by: Mia Ma, Richard Wang, Sophia Luong, Silas Vincent, Asher Zhu and Callum Goodwin.
