ARTS ELECTIVE: 

Visual Art 

What is the subject about?

This elective introduces students to studio art practice through engaging with a variety of art forms including, drawing, painting, sculpture and printmaking. Students investigate art themes, materials, techniques and processes. 

We research artists and art movements for Inspiration and learn how to annotate and evaluate their own art practice in a visual diary.  Art vocabulary and analyses are integrated into the student’s art practice and are paramount for art comprehension and folio development.
