Artist in Residence

Art comes alive for Collegiate students in so many ways. Our art teachers regularly invite working artists to school and give the children the chance to see them and watch their art grow organically. This month Amie Oliver is visiting to share her work. Here is a description from her Facebook page, describing her style:
"The “Heaven, Earth and Sea” series
explores drawing and painting with
permanent ink on archival water resistant
paper. As I scratch, scrub, draw and pour these
shapes onto a smooth surface it becomes evident
that permanence is an illusion and the ink
records every movement.

This body of work is a long and winding river
for me... It has a momentum which takes
everything in its path and returns it to the sea:
truth, beauty, pain and decay... it floods, ebbs,
dwindles and flows as it makes it's way to
wherever it is going."
