March 30th, 2024Student exhibition set for next month

The New School of Classical Painting will hold a student exhibition at Stanbridge Hall, Central Springs Road, Daylesford on Saturday, April 6 from 1pm to 5pm.

Deny Christian, the director and teacher of the school, said the exhibition of drawings and paintings was the progressive works of her students in their path of the atelier study of fine art.

“Some of these students have been with the school for the past two years, some are in their third or fourth terms.

“All are showing great progress, through application and critique, toward the goal of painting from life.

“There will be several works from each student exhibited. These are unframed drawings on paper, pastel on paper and oils on canvas which study tone, form and construction principles.

“Most are for sale, at student prices. And many excellent studies are included.”

There will be an opening presentation at 1.30pm.
