The Senior Art Majors released the show “About Face” on February 3rd, the day of Tony Scherman‘s visit to the school in association with the Arts Matter lecture series. They worked for three weeks on encaustic self portraits, imitating the style of Tony Scherman’s work.
“The biggest challenge was letting go of what you thought your painting should look like,” Holly Gendron, a Grade 12 Art Major, said, “you have to just let the colour and the structure of the painting come through.”
Below are images of the paintings the Art Majors produced for “About Face”.
