Grade 11 journalling

The Visual journals are a big part of the creative process in Visual Art. The students put a lot of time and effort into these journals; conceptualizing, planning, researching contemporary artists and techniques, experimenting with different media etc. Often these journals become artworks in themselves. Have a look at a few sample pages from some Grade 11 journals.




Grade 10 'texture' paintings

Lino is a fantastic medium when you are experimenting with texture and contrast. Have a look at some of the Grade 11's lovely prints.












Grade 11 Pencil Crayon drawings

The grade 11's this year are such a lovely mix of personalities, all so dedicated to their art. In grade 11 I encourage the students to experiment with all sorts of different media, to find something that suits them best for their matric year. Here is a sample of some Grade 11 pencil crayon drawing.
