Year 8 Art

Year 8 students have made an amazing start to their new elective rotations in visual art. Students have learnt a wide range of drawing techniques and processes which they have started to apply to a large-scale drawing of extinct animals. Great work Year 8’s, we are all looking forward to seeing your final masterpieces.

Year 9 Art

Our Year 9 artists are on fire, exploring Surrealism like never before. Students are applying their understanding of colour theory and painting techniques to create re-imagined famous Surrealist works with a twist. From Dalí's melting clocks to Magritte's enigmatic scenes, the Year 9’s are breathing new life into classics while showcasing their own creativity. Get ready for an exhibition that blurs the lines between dreams and reality.

Year 10 Art

Year 10 Visual Art students have embarked on Unit 3 centred around the concept of Land, Sea, and Sky. Through engaging in yarning circles, these students have acquired the skills to exchange thoughts and ideas, particularly focusing on places that hold profound personal significance. They have delved into both contemporary and traditional Aboriginal Art, where they've explored aerial viewpoints, symbols, and abstract representation; all in the pursuit of creating artworks representing their chosen locations. This exploration is now being channelled through drawing and printmaking methods such as dry point etching and lino prints. Stay tuned for the end results.

Year 9 Media

Exploring the world of visual storytelling, Year 9 Media students are immersing themselves in the art of Macro photography. Through the captivating lens of their cameras, they're delving into the miniature universe of LEGO and mini figurines. By focusing on intricate details and capturing the essence of these tiny subjects, students are honing their skills in composition, lighting, and perspective. This hands-on experience not only showcases their creativity but also teaches them the power of close observation and storytelling through imagery.

Year 11 Art

Year 11 Art students are taking their creative talents to the next level with a unique project: designing a student diary cover for 2024. Guided by a client brief, students are blending, composition, materials, aesthetics and functionality to represent the school. Stay tuned to witness which students work is selected to be printed and distributed to all students next year. 

Get ready to witness innovation in action as the Year 11 General Art students unpack the unit concept Art as Code. They've created experimental folios demonstrating their understanding of colour, data and abstraction to create an experimental folio and are planning and creating resolved artworks that challenge conventional artistic limits. Great work Year 11’s.
