What the college says

The main emphasis of the course is on personal development and building up a portfolio both for assessment and progression onto higher levels of study. This is achieved through the development of drawing, painting and printmaking skills and gradual development of more individual ways of working. Artists' work, both traditional and contemporary, plays an important role in the development of coursework and encourages you to broaden your subject knowledge and understanding. Specialist staff provide regular constructive feedback and as the course develops you will gain an increasingly confident and independent approach to your studies. You are expected to develop skills in working independently both in and out of timetabled sessions. This course will provide you with an experience which will develop in you an ability to communicate ideas visually; a skill which is transferable to many careers.
