K-2 Artist of the Week

Sebastian Palmiotto KW
Ted Ferguson KW
Thomas Tan KW

This term, Kindergarten have been exploring portraiture.  They have discussed the differences between a portrait and a self-portrait and looked at the work of artists that create both. For this piece, the boys enjoyed selecting random facial features from the container without peaking and used them to create their made-up portrait. Sebastian, Ted and Thomas have all used colour, line and pattern in an interesting and sophisticated way. Well done boys!

3-6 Artist of the Week

Boys in Year 5 have been studying self portraits and the proportions of the face. They were then asked to imagine themselves as a person living in colonial Australia. If they had a phone and could take a selfie, who would they be? The boys became a variety of people e.g. magistrates, soldiers and sailors.

Congratulations to Callum Lau, Jamie Burgess, Roenin R and Luka Tomasevic for their excellent craftsmanship and patience.
