Fine Art A level

UPDATED 20161104 08:06:26

This Fine Art course engages students in practical studio work, which is informed by relevant contextual study. Fine Art promotes an experimental approach using a wide range of media including, painting, print, mixed media and digital imagery. Observational drawing underpins all Fine Art practice and is seen as an essential requirement for the course. You are encouraged to further your artistic interests, understanding and skills whilst developing a personal creative response within the supportive environment of the art studios. The appreciation and study of art is integral to the course and this culminates in the second year with an illustrated written study of between 1,000 and 3,000 words. Throughout the course you will be encouraged to build upon both traditional and contemporary methods of working. You are instructed to develop personal responses to a variety of themes exploring, for example, culture, self, relationships and artistic styles. Throughout the course emphasis is placed upon line, tone, colour, texture, shape, form and space. You may work with a variety of media, such as paints, pastels, pencils, pen and ink, water-colours, fabric, print and digital and are encouraged to develop a multi-media approach. You can select one approach or combine techniques as you progress.
