Creative Arts.

What an amazing first term we have had in the Creative Arts!
We started our term exploring ‘What is Art?’ and using our imaginations and creativity to create our art piece that joins together to create our whole school art piece.

It Started With Maybe……Individual = Unique……….Together = Magnificent Community


We then continued our learning to explore Piet Mondrian, a very famous Dutch Artist who was the pioneer of Abstract Art. His work was composed of 4 key elements: shape, colour, line and space. The students learnt more about Piet, his creations and why he chose to make art that was simple and basic.


Students then got the opportunity to create their own Piet Mondrian inspired work.
The Foundation's focus was primary colours and shapes.

Grade 5 and 6 had the challenge of creating a 3D cube with Piet’s inspiration of his New York pieces.

We then went on to create our own Free Form (Non Objective) Abstract Art. Student’s had to use their imagination to come up with a unique piece using the four elements of Shape, Colour, Line and Space.

They look absolutely AMAZING!

Well Done for a terrific first term. ENjoy your holidays and I can’t wait to have you back in the Art Room creating more wonderful pieces next term!
