Level 2 Painting (PNT202)
PNT202 Course DescriptionTeacher in Charge: Mr R. Hatcliffe.
Recommended Prior LearningIt is an advantage if students have completed a course at Level 1. Either Design and Photography or Visual Art. This, however, is not essential.
Level 2 Painting will build on creative processes and techniques that were introduced in the Level 1 Visual Art courses. Students will explore a variety of media and visual elements to develop and express ideas and communicate these in a more personalized program of study. Two internal assessments allow students to identify and generate their own individual ideas. These ideas and themes are then further explored and developed for the submission of a two-panel external folio.
Course Overview
Term 1
In Term 1 students will be studying some of the conventions of painting. We will be looking at a variety of artists and their ways of working.
Students will focus on the first internal assessment and some of these pieces will be used at a later date for the folio board.
Term 2
In term 2 the focus shifts to developing ideas in a related series. Again students will use the work of established artists to help inspire and guide them as they extend and refine their work.
Students will work on the second internal assessment during this term which is specifically aimed at showing how they can move their work onwards with the aid of artist models.
Term 3
Term 3 is about continuing to develop ideas in a series which is related and linked. Students will spend time refining their work and planning for their folio boards.
Term 4
Students will finalise their folio board work and arrange their pieces for the external moderation.
