Monsters

In this unit of work, students produced a soft toy Monster developing an individual character and personality from a series of templates. They needed to develop hand skills in sewing to create their monsters, using felt and embroidery thread to add individual features and personality to their template.

Landscape Painting

For this task, students created their own Australian Landscape painting. They studied the Australian Impressionist, particularly the Heidelberg school. Students investigated how colour and tone can be used to capture the world around us. They developed basic painting techniques to create particular effects in their landscape painting. There was also a focus on analyzing photos or images in terms of composition, focal point, colour, light and shade.

Visual Communication & Design

In this unit of work, students can express their personalities and interests through the creation of a T-shirt design. Over the course of the assignment, students follow the design process, from initial research and brainstorming to final digital production using Illustrator.
