2014 Grade 11 Impressionist painting competition

This years Grade 11 group have done a fantastic job with their landscape oil paintings. The planning and journal work involved was really good & with the students permission I may post a few examples of these wonderful journals at a later stage. Their task was to learn about working with oil paint by creating a land/seascape, using the techniques of the Impressionist artists they have just studied in Art History. Have a look at some of their work. Lovely isn't it!?

Ps: The winners of the Painting competition (as judged by Mr Cato, Mr Reynolds and Mr Wyattminter) were as follows: 1st: Claire McCubbin, 2nd: Christi Ferreira, Highly Commended: Jeanne Botha, Emily Yeo and Holly McCarthy. Well done girls!
