Portraiture: Drawn to discovery

  • From

Sketches of inventions. Photographs of galaxies. Portraits of scientists. These are all art.  

In this free 45-minute webinar, we will visually analyse three portraits of prominent Australian scientists. Students will brainstorm and draw their ideas, then end by drawing a portrait of themselves as scientists. Learn how art meets science. 

This program is best suited for students from Year 4 to Year 8

Please ensure each student has access to two pieces of paper and pencils for the drawing activities.
