What the college says

What is Art? Art and Design allows students to extend creative thinking and problem solving skills in art media as well as using the traditional approaches of drawing and painting techniques in a two year course. Creative industries are at the forefront of employment across the UK. You will develop skills through creating and developing new ideas that are challenging, individual and expressive. Your work and skills will develop as well as your confidence to present and discuss. Why study it? Using inspiring themes, you will be able to develop your own ideas with the only limit being your imagination. Throughout the course you will create an exciting portfolio of work using a variety of different media, including drawing, painting, printmaking, textiles, photography and ICT. Yet perhaps more valuable than anything, you will enjoy opportunities to develop independence of mind, explore your own ideas, refine your skills and produce personal outcomes, as well as discussing them through critiques and tutorials.
