Course Description

Contact Person: A. Heinz.

Recommended Prior Learning

Option Year 9 and 10 Art, one or both, are very helpful but not necessary. 



This is a manageable practical art course which is designed to develop a student’s skills in drawing, painting and printmaking using a range of techniques and media. Students will be encouraged to explore themes around themselves, their own culture and their environment and develop artwork from that. 

The course encourages students to make appropriate choices and connections between ideas and media, to develop a critical awareness of artists’ works and processes, develop thinking skills and to begin to develop a personal Art style while enjoying the process.
