Art 101 Practical
This course focuses on teaching and extending both traditional and contemporary art making techniques. This includes drawing, painting and printmaking. With reference to works by national and international artists, students will explore a range of processes and conventions to inform their own artmaking. They will work on thoroughly planning an artwork which focuses on the student establishing their place in the world. All initial planning will be completed in their workbook and then the final artwork is produced, ready to exhibit.
This course may lead on to Level 2 Visual Art Painting, Printmaking, Design and Photography. These 4 disciplines continue as separate subjects in Level 3 for University Entrance.
Students are able to either 101ARP Practical and/or 101ARD Digital.
