L3 Art Painting

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Miss N. Patterson, Mr M. Hill.

 

This course follows directly on from Level 2 Art Painting.

Students will further extend their understanding and use of conventions specific to painting. Senior Art is about developing a personal sense of style and approach to making. In Level 3, students choose their own theme that resonates with them. They will research relevant Artist Models and apply the knowledge of this research to their own ideas and original outcomes. Students will predominantly work with traditional drawing media and acrylic paint, however, there is scope to explore other paint mediums such as watercolour and oil for those who are passionate. 

Students are expected to manage their time and take control of their project in order to produce a range of outcomes exploring their own point of view as an artist.

This course leads to further tertiary study in Fine Arts and Visual Arts.

Prerequisites

14 credits at Level 2 Art or by negotiation with HOD.
