2024 Virtual Art Gallery
Jun 10
Thank you to everyone who participated in this year’s Virtual Gallery!
We received 36 entries from 27 youth artists in five local schools!
Their contributions ranged from drawings to ceramics and a dance routine.
The visual art has been divided into 3 different rooms based on their subject!
Room #1: Nature

Janelle / Royal Bay / Grade 12
This painting of monarch butterfly's is the only piece I've made that has taken over 30 hours to finish. It is made with acrylic paint and is completely free hand.

Gwendolyn / Dunsmuir / Grade 7
I used watercolors and a little bit of pencil crayons to make this jellyfish.

Nora / Dunsmuir / Grade 6
I drew this because I really like drawing and nature is really pretty. I used paint and pens/pencils.

Gwendolyn / Dunsmuir / Grade 7
I used watercolors to paint this Betta fish and then went over it with sharpie and pencil crayons for the outline and details.

Gwendolyn / Dunsmuir / Grade 7
This is a photo of a bear I drew without a reference photo using blue, red, and black pencil crayons.

Veruschka / Dunsmuir / Grade 6
My tree sketch artwork was one that I kept simple without overcrowding. I sketched my flower artwork so the flowers filled up the .whole age and left room for my name. My cherry blossom painting I drew in the spring looking outside my window.
Room #2: Fantasy

Sarah / Dunsmuir / Grade 6
I have drawn an alien 1 because I enjoy drawing unique creatures and characters but because I wanted to made something colourful and full of energy therefore I chose an alien.

Malik / Centre Mountain Lellum / Grade 7
I wrote this book for my brother and it is about a creature that is the last of his species, I hope you like it!

Oliver / Dunsmuir / Grade 6
I love sports so I made this digital mosaic of my favorite wwe wrestler Hulk Hogan.

Biborka / Royal Bay / Grade 12
Corresponding with the album Hawaii: Part II (2012), by Miracle Musical this narrative piece is a telling of a story of murder and insanity.

Juliana / Dunsmuir / Grade 6
This art piece is about all the amazing colours that can shine through a simple painting. I chose a dragon to represent it because it's brave to show your true colours.

Tatianna / Royal Bay / Grade 12
A ceramic dragon, 12 inches long. His design was based off of a dragon I drew at 11 who wandered the mountains collecting the souls of fallen climbers—hence his name Moncaerutor being a blend of the words "blue", "mountain", and "traveller" in Latin.
Interlude: Dance Number by Skyla
(Dunsmuir / Grade 7)
Room 3: The World Around Us

Tish / Brookes Westshore / Grade 10
This piece gives the audience an insider view of the complexities of being a young female immigrant. It represents years worth of emotional trauma that is unique to who I am and it is my goal to allow the viewer to experience my life through my art.

Arina / Royal Bay / Grade 11
"Former Wealth" captures the allure of a once-grand historical building, of which, only the walls remain. Its play of light and shadow emphasizes the passage of time and the mystery of its former glory, evoking the emotions of loss and nostalgia.

Abbie / Dunsmuir / Grade 8
This is a girl holding a camera above her eye. (Reference picture from Pinterest)

Matty / Dunsmuir / Grade 6
This lighthouse was completed with water colours and it reminded me of the lighthouses I have seen as I really like them.

Piper / Dunsmuir / Grade 6
I made this because I like drawing and wanted people to see my art.
I used pencil and sharpie to make the eye.

Matty / Dunsmuir / Grade 6
This manor house was completed over a course of four months and I'm extremely proud of it.

Jacob / Royal Bay / Grade 12
This piece portrays the little care the people of Paris have for the Eiffel tower, and how some even dislike the tourism and traffic it attracts. (Oil pastel on paper 18x24)
