Course description:

Based on student choice and a personal theme proposal, the course is designed to promote independent work habits and extend personal learning. 

Students will undertake projects to develop individual and creative artworks, with a strong emphasis on experimenting with a range of wet and dry media, particularly within the field of painting. The course focuses on investigating, generating, and developing ideas. 

Students will research traditional and contemporary artists for inspiration to enhance their own creativity. Practical skills and understanding of art methods will build upon those learned in the Year 11 Art course.
