WATER QUILT PRINTMAKING
STUDIO GRADES 1 – 3, 4 – 6 Inspired by Joyce Wieland’s Water Quilt, students
create a collective artwork incorporating handmade stencils representing
various plants and species from our fragile wetland environment. This studio
invites students to explore the art of printmaking while addressing the impact
of climate change on our immediate natural environment.
April 21 - Landscape
LANDSCAPE PAINTING
STUDIO GRADES 1 – 3, 4 – 6 Inspired by the Group of Seven’s legacy, this
painting studio takes students from an initial compositional study to a final
painting, all while discovering the modernist take on the landscape genre.
Exploration of colour gradation and space is an important part of this
process-oriented studio as students learn the tricks and tips for painting
perspective, focal points, and working with a traditional Canadian palette.
