Art Gives You Wings! Brighton Grammar School

Published on 18 October 2025 at 22:04

As Artist in Residence at Brighton Grammar School, I worked with the youngest children, in Prep class, to study local birds.  With Art Teacher Mandy Foulds, we created feathers and decorated them with sponge paint, oil pastels and pen work. We collaged the feathers together, creating wings to soar!

This work, standing over 2 metres tall, proved a very popular "selfie spot", with children and parents sharing it through their photos.
