Level 3 Visual Art Painting

Course Description

Level Three Visual Art Painting

In Level Three Painting, students select their own theme to create a body of work that develops an idea and expresses a personal style. Students will have the opportunity to use a wide range of drawing and paint media including pastel, ink, watercolour, oils, and acrylics. By using selective artist model studies to inform their practice, Level Three Painting students will spend time generating ideas and extending their skills with the paint application and techniques learned.

Students need to have completed Level Two Painting for entry into this course. In exceptional circumstances a student may gain entry into the course without Level Two Painting, but this is assessed on an individual basis and requires an interview and the approval of the Head of Department.
