The first piece, the Pastel Mandala Drawing was produced by Aquinas students in Pre-Primary. Using Mandalas and the Indian culture as inspiration, students created a group oil pastel piece reminiscent of a Mandala. The project was guided by Mandala research, and the design elements used within the piece. Students engaged with the process of interpreting colour, pattern and texture associated with the chosen image. In Hinduism and Buddhism, the belief is that by entering the Mandala and proceeding towards its centre, you are then guided through the spiritual process of transforming the universe from one of suffering into one of joy and happiness. Dimensions : 1.3 x 1.3mtrs - square.

Value: Priceless

The second piece, a Tom Roberts Impressionist Painting – ‘Holiday Sketch At Coogee” – was produced by Aquinas students in Year 4. This piece is an interpretation of a Tom Roberts impressionist work; Tom Roberts meets Aquinas Junior School! Students analysed and developed practical ideas on how to manipulate and mix paint that were necessary to complete their group painting. They researched painting techniques from the time period as well as playing with size, shape and scale. This piece demonstrates that we can use past art movements to inspire new work. Dimensions: 1 x 1.5mtrs – rectangle.
