ART303
Course Description Recommended Prior Learning

Students must have successfully completed ART202 in order to be successful in this course. 

Students must be prepared to keep up with all tasks and need a strong work ethic in order to be successful. Good time management skills and an ability to think creatively are essential. 


BIG QUESTION: How will I create a systematic body of artworks that integrates conventions and regenerates ideas within painting practice?

This course specialises in painting.  You will explore and extend your skills in a variety of painting media. 

Level 3 Painting will support all students to take risks, extend and learn new skills, and share knowledge together.  

You will create a systematic body of painted artworks based on your chosen theme. You will research and refine your idea, deepen and expand your thinking and communicate this in your artworks. To support your investigation, you will develop a strong art journal practice, where you research and evaluate visual ideas and draw inspiration from artist models.

ART303 requires commitment and ongoing participation, both in the classroom and at home. It is excellent preparation for tertiary level study, because of the depth of thinking and the self-management that is required.

This course will teach you many skills and techniques and give you a sense of pride that comes from making meaningful art works.

NOTE: Students who have a strong interest and ambition in the Visual Arts may choose to do a further 3 hours of time by picking ARTX323. This is recommended if you want more time to complete extra Internal Assessments or do SCHOLARSHIP PAINTING.
