Art on the Hill project for pupils

PUPILS at Brill school will soon be producing a large piece of art with the support of a professional artist, for this year’s Art on the Hill event in April.

Jane Vaux from Oxford, has many solo shows under her belt and plans to involve every one of the 172 pupils at Brill School.

Jane, who will work to the theme of The Brill Community, said:. “I am keen to share some of my experience as an artist with the children, encouraging them that in creativity of this kind, there are no rights or wrongs – all art is exciting and will be appreciated by someone, somewhere!

“It is a lesson all artists have to learn – that the appreciation of art is varied and can be surprising, but the joy of creating it is one open to every one.”

The project will be taking place on various Fridays in January, February and March to enable completion of the project before April. Once completed, the work will be hung in one of the main areas of the school for all to see.

Jane will also be putting some of her own work on show for the exhibition dates.

Art on the Hill runs from April 15 to April 17.
