ADVANCING BEAUTY , GOODNESS AND TRUTH THROUGH ART LEARNING
STUDENT ARTISTS ’ WORK REFLECTS THE BEAUTY
During Term 1 , Art students in Years 7 and 8 engaged with their school surroundings and used resources from the school Archives to develop works of aesthetic beauty and creative wonder .
The Art studios have views across the Main Oval to the Chapel , which Year 8 students drew from observation . They then added smaller school motifs such as wildlife , bollards , signs or cricket players , and explored using warm and cool colours , in imaginative ways , to create their own unique interpretation of the Scotch environment . The student artists ' statements reflect their appreciation of the unique beauty of their school grounds :
‘ My artistic statement is about Scotch and its many motifs and famous Scotch landmarks like the Chapel and main Oval . Most of Scotch in the painting I kept close to the real thing except for some locations moving around . The main imaginary parts are the big birds , eyes and big posts scattered around in the work . On a personal note , I particularly tried to show one of the best things about being a Scotchy is the famous Scotch grounds which we are very lucky to have and learn on .’
