Visual Art - 201
Visual Arts 201 is a course that covers two Achievement Standards (AS) and for each Achievement Standard there is a mixture of practical based tasks and Art Theory. These involve students learning how to use and experiment with paint, drawing, construction and design processes. The Art Theory involves students interpreting and understanding Art styles and selected artists work.
There is one external Achievement Standard in Painting. Assessment for this is in the form of two Art Boards (an Art Folio).These are sent to Wellington in early November for marking. The Drawing unit is for developing drawing ideas for the Art Boards and is marked internally. This involves students presenting a work book of experimental drawing and paint designs.
Visual Art 201 provides a total of 18 credits. The subject is studied 4 hours per week.
All units in this course require students to manage time well and work continuously on tasks for homework.
