Course Outline
This course is the foundation for all senior specialist Art programmes. At this level, study is broad-based, covering drawing, painting, printmaking and sculpture. These areas of study are linked thematically. Students develop practical skills enabling them to explore, analyse and resolve problems in the Visual Arts. Specific areas are extended through workshops with practising New Zealand artists. The combination of technique, practice and theory develops sound, creative, critical and lateral thinking skills.
Students will be required to attend workshops for sculpture and occasional drawing workshops outside normal studio hours.
