Explore Impressionist painting

…through the wonderful expressive style of Grace Cossington Smith (1892-1984)

Grace Cossington Smith is regarded as one of Australia’s foremost modernist artists. She was interested in the idea of conveying an emotive response through colour and explored these ideas and experimented in a range of interiors using different aspects of light and colour with expressive square brush strokes.   Grace was a brilliant colourist and her paintings have become iconic images in Australian art.

This immersive program offers an engaging exploration to her work through the ideas and innovations of Impressionism. Learn the techniques and identifying styles used by Impressionist artists while considering the movement’s legacy and enduring popularity.

This course offers something for everyone, including artists and teachers who are passionate about learning and keen to expand their understanding of this much loved and transformative art movement. We explore social and cultural contexts that shaped the development of Impressionism in the late nineteenth century making this an ideal starting point for those also looking to deepen their appreciation of art history.

You will be guided through set-by-step instructions and demonstrations to produce exciting visual statements and take home a folio of activity sheets, and a ready-to-hang finished artwork.
