WHEN it comes to perspective, art student Emma Wilkins is heading in the right direction.
Emma was at Mont De Lancey Historic Homestead with fellow Wandin Yallock Primary School students last week preparing for the launch of the school’s art exhibition.
It is an exciting culmination of months of work by all the students to have their work displayed in such a beautiful gallery.
And, for visitors, the range of works covering genres and topics that the students have been studying as part of their art studies, will offer up a thoughtful and colourful display.
“It’s lovely to her the students talking about art in this way,” art teacher Theresa Myring said as students Emma, Jye Bull, Heath Findlay and Grace Sibley discussed what they have learnt in the process including pointillism, the French artists, colour and perspective.
More than 100 works, including clay work, will be on display from 5 to 13 December.
Mont De Lancey is at 71 Wellington Road, Wandin.
