Art and Design
Course summary
In the first term students will complete a foundation module of skills related to good Fine Art practice. These include drawing, mark making, painting, print making, sculpture and alternative media such as photography and video presentations. Completed work will be presented on appropriate formats of A1 boards and will cover all appropriate aesthetic skills such as colour, the use of line and texture. Students will begin a sustained project in an area of study of their choice in the second term. Students will select sources, organise their own projects and present in creative presentations in either sketchbooks or worksheets. The module will be sub themed into three sections to allow depth of knowledge and a full range of creative outcomes. The final response can either be a single outcome such as a large painting or sculpture, or a series of smaller outcomes that explore a concept in a personal way. Students are also required to write a related study – a minimum of 1000 words essay about existing Art and how it has influenced their own work. For more information, please see the full prospectus.
