✏️🏙️ Our talented Year 6 artists have been working on pencil sketches using two-point perspective with our specialist art teacher, Ms Dani! Students explored how artists create depth and dimension by using vanishing points and perspective lines to design their own detailed scenes. It was fantastic to see their focus, creativity, and growing confidence as they experimented with this new drawing technique. We are so proud of the effort and persistence our students showed while developing their artistic skills. Their finished sketches look amazing! 👏✨ Take a look at some of the impressive work from our Year 6 artists below. #Year6Art #TwoPointPerspective #StudentArtists #CreativeLearning #stcaniceskatoomba💙🩵

🎨 Stage 3 Exploring the Elements of Design 🎨 Our Stage 3 students have been exploring the elements of design through the work of famous artist Piet Mondrian. Inspired by his bold use of lines, shapes and primary colours, students created their own striking artworks using the distinctive Mondrian style. By carefully arranging vertical and horizontal lines and filling spaces with red, blue and yellow, students experimented with balance, composition and colour while developing their understanding of design. We love seeing their creativity and thoughtful designs come to life. Fantastic work, Stage 3! 🖌️✨ #Stage3Art #ElementsOfDesign #MondrianInspired #CreativeStudents #stcaniceskatoomba💙🩵

It was wonderful to see their creativity come to life as they transformed simple lines into colourful paintings and imaginative 3D pieces. We are so proud of the creativity, focus and enthusiasm shown by our young artists. Well done, Stage 1! 🖌️✨ #Stage1Art #CreativeLearning #SchoolArt #YoungArtists #stcaniceskatoomba💙🩵
