Art

  • This is a three-year programme covering all aspects of Art, Craft and Design.
  • The work of the first three years consists of continuous experiences in art where weekly sessions are used to match the developing skills, and changing perceptions of students.

 

  • These experiences in the programme are as follows
  • Observation and Recording
  • Analytical Studies
  • Personal Expression
  • Critical Studies and Appraisal
  • Skills and Craftsmanship 
  • Art
  • What the students think:
  • “I chose Art because I enjoy drawing and it is more like an enjoyable hobby than a real school subject.”                                 David Simpson.
  • “Art lets me express my feelings and it is a way to express your ideas in a different way.”
  • David Coady
  • “You get experience by working with a range of materials and it is really enjoyable.”

Derek Naughton
