Life Drawing

Well my third years have a busy year ahead of them with the Junior Cert Project, but before we got the titles we were experimenting with life drawing in different media: and I think you'll all agree the results were fantastic! Lets hope our Projects will be equally inspirational!
You can see them photographed beside some really wonderful 2nd Year Oil Pastel images.

Halloween Lino Printing

I'm way overdue posting so I thought I'd begin by adding something seasonal: the new Halloween lino prints my current first years have been making. As you can see, they've been doing lovely prints and then transforming them into some pretty impressive cards! I'm still waiting on a few new designs but this is what's been made so far: I'm very proud!

6th Year Trip to Castletown House

Today was my 6th year art classe's last school trip ever!! Very sad to see such a creative and enthusiastic group leaving the school but exciting as I know I will hear many great things about these students in the years to come! Our visit today to the magnificent Castletown House was a nice send-off to a very busy year. I want to wish all my 6th years the very best of luck in their exams and I have every faith that all of you will do me proud!

LCA 1 Exhibition

I was delighted this year to have an absolutely fantastic group of LCA students. For their Task, each student created a poster about themselves, framed it and then hosted a cheese and wine exhibition in the school. Well done to all -  I am so proud of all the hard work and creativity that went into these fabulous pieces. Take a look below at the pictures from our exhibition opening:

LCA Trip to Temple Bar Gallery and Studios

It's been a really busy time for my LCA1 Craft students: at the end of April we had Tasks to finish as well as a trip to the prestigious Temple Bar Gallery and Studios where we had the pleasure of seeing the studio of artist Hannah Fitz. Here are some of the pictures taken on the day:
