Year 13 8ARP – Art Painting (NCEA L3)
Course Option Description
Head of Learning Area (HOLA): Mrs A. Price.
Why this course:
Any students considering tertiary study in the visual arts, architecture or design courses are recommended to take at least one art course at Level 3. Furthermore, research suggests that art education is important for developing thought processes and perceptual awareness which is helpful in developing creative thinking. This, of course, can be applied to any field of endeavour.
Course information:
This course offers students the opportunity to follow their personal interests in greater depth as a result of having successfully completed Level 2 Art Painting (7ARP). They are required to explore painting issues that relate to a chosen area of interest and as a result, formulate their own theme study for the duration of the year. The majority of the year is spent generating, analysing and clarifying drawings and paintings that explore ideas, techniques, processes and methods arising from their theme study.
