The Painting course builds knowledge around painting genres and movements within the arts. You will select an individual theme for your painting work for the year and write a proposal. Following this, you will complete a research assignment based on chosen artist models and explore different painting genres. You will create your own annotated drawings and paintings, using your chosen subject matter, while incorporating the conventions from your selected artist models. The internal assignments are designed to integrate with and support the externally assessed Level 3 portfolio project.
The course includes technical instruction in Painting and other supporting media of your choice. The extension of your chosen style of working is individualized and supported to suit your preferences, whether illustrative, expressionistic, or otherwise.
