Arts Fortnight begins!

This week, we have begun our Arts Fortnight and have loved exploring new printing techniques and artist styles. On Monday, we were lucky to have a gifted, local artist (Mr Sestini) come in to show us some example wood cut prints and collagraph prints using Tetra Pak! He explained how to create indentations in the Tetra Pak and then allowed us to try using this technique on our own templates. The templates themselves were inspired by the artist Keith Haring – our focus for the next two weeks. Haring uses a variety of playful figures to create artworks. As you will also see below, we incorporated these figures in our next pieces – a Keith Haring inspired art work. We loved using a variety of colours and ‘doodles’ in our pieces!
