Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Ms S. O'Grady.

Pre-requisites

Pass in Achievement Standard AS90916 (ARTC1.4) Produce a body of work informed by established practice, which develops ideas, using a range of media OR approval by current classroom teacher or HOD

Students who wish to enroll who have not completed this Achievement Standard may apply and may be offered a course specified by the Department [12ARI].


Year 12 Art Practical builds on the practical and thinking skills learned in Year 11 Art Practical.  It has a primary focus of developing ideas within a body of artwork and students will learn practical skills appropriate to individual paths of study. Students will start by modelling work off established artists and will then be expected to build on that developing their own ideas.  Whilst this course is focused mainly on painting, it may include introductory work in other media areas

This course is a prerequisite for Year 13 Painting.

All students taking this course will undertake a large portfolio (Achievement Standard 2.4 - Painting) that requires a substantial commitment.  Students will be expected to commit a reasonable amount of out of class time to complete this. Visual Arts spaces will be available to work in after school most days, and feedback will be available during some of this times in addition to class time.
