Enrichment - Exhibition Entries (2011)

 These examples of students art were produced as art entries to a local community art exhibition last year.  Students looked at a range of eyes (animal and birds) they chose one that they could enlarge. Students drew them on paper first, enlarging them to suit their canvas boards.

Once they had them on their boards, they outlined the eye and texture using impasto gel in a sauce bottle.  Let the Gel dry, this gave their painting an added dimension. Then they had fun with colour, firstly painting with a base colour and building their eyes with a colour scheme, realism wasnt necessarily impotant.  Thsi also gave them an opportunity to explore texture.

Abstract Animal Eyes 2011

Animal eyes: this project uses a variety of mediums.  The black pupil is painted using indian ink, the paterns/design which represents the Iris uses colour pencils, black felt tips, the outside texture uses chalk pastels.  This is the results of our students hard work.
