Level 1 Visual Art Painting

VAP100
Course Description

Level One Visual Art Painting

Students in this course will explore art making within a New Zealand context, with a culturally based starting point that leads into their own exploration of a theme. This course offers students a broad range of art making media to experiment with. They will be using photo collage, drawing, painting, sculpture and printmaking to explore their own ideas and develop technical skills that will lead them into Level Two Visual Arts courses. Students are encouraged to develop their own personal art making style that expresses their unique viewpoint and creative voice.

This is the introductory foundational course that will support you in Level Two Visual Art Painting. This course can not be taken in conjunction with Level One Visual Art Design & Photography, so it is recommended for those with a specific interest in Painting and practical based art making.

It is recommended that students have completed the Year 10 Visual Art course, but this is not required to gain entry into the Level 1 course. A student will be granted entry into the course without having completed Year 10 Visual art.
