Level 2 Visual Art Painting
Course Description
Level Two Visual Art Painting
The course is designed to extend the knowledge and skills taught at Level One Painting and to prepare students for Level Three Painting. Students in this course devise their own theme and work towards the completion of a portfolio for external credits. They will have the opportunity to use a wide range of drawing and paint media including pastel, ink, watercolour, oils, and acrylics. Students will spend time generating ideas and extending their skills with paint application and techniques.
It is recommended that students have completed Level One Painting or Level One Design & Photography, but it is not required to gain entry into Level Two Visual Arts courses. Students who have not studied Visual Art at Level One will need to have passed their Level One certificate, and have an interview with the Visual Art Department to assess which Visual Arts course is best suited to the student. Priority into the Level Two Painting course is given to students who have successfully completed a Level One Visual Arts course.
