Art Report - YEARS 7&8

I have had the privilege of working with two groups of Year 8 for Art. Semester One and Two. We have worked on Lino Printing and the history of Lino Printing, including a Peel Paragraph on the process of creating a linocut and then printing from it. Both groups rose to the challenge of these activities and obviously enjoyed the process and created some very interesting images. This semester’s group pushed through Lino Cutting and then Pop Art and Expressionism, creating excellent drawings then paintings using a combination of Pop Art and Expressionism. Some of this group then painted on old canvases creating another version of their Pop Art Expressionist Image. Now they are working on small wire sculptures of animals ( Australia Native animals is the theme) Although some students are focusing on their pets ( dogs or cats).
