The weather was bright and Year 12 Art students were immersed in art yesterday afternoon during their trip to the Forrester Gallery and Grainstore Gallery. At the Forrester Gallery Liz King spoke about works from the Kermadec Exhibition (which runs till 8 May) pointing out particular pieces that used a variety of techniques in their composition (including a thought provoking sculpture from John Reynolds). The Grainstore Gallery features a large amount of work by local artist Donna Demente, but also includes pieces by Watt Davis and Fenella Barry to name but a few! Students had the opportunity to meet photographer Derek Goulding who was in the Gallery working on a project. With the weather playing it's part, the day was perfect for some photography and sketching around the harbour to finish the day. Thank you to Liz and Derek for giving your time to speak to students and to Mrs Plunkett for organising the day.
