Subject Description

Teacher in Charge: Mr R. Paulet.

Art

Year 9 Art builds on the skills covered in Year 7 and 8 Art. Students will focus on the practical areas of drawing, painting, sculpture, photography and printmaking.

Students will use a wide range of media and techniques throughout their Art rotation. Considerable emphasis is placed upon the developing and understanding of the processes and procedures of how and why Art is made.

Students will learn how to see and think about Art; how to use a studio based environment, how to collaborate, and help others and themselves to grow.

They will examine the work of a range of established artists and use them as models to generate and develop ideas in a systemic and meaningful way.

This course leads on to a full year programme of study in Year 10 Art.
