Level 3 Painting Student work by Emma Patmore - The Creators Room Top Scholar - Overall Scholarship Winner 2019
“I wanted to explore the Japanese culture that I wasn’t brought up with. And I wanted to explore ideas and express my personality through my Japanese culture as well as my Kiwi culture."
“There are people who do that through writing or speaking, but I personally like to do it by painting.”
Level 3 Painting deepens your understanding of all things painting and you are in the driving seat! This is an individualized course for people who enjoy self-directed learning and making choices. You will choose your own genre, theme, artistic influences, methods, and processes.
Don't worry! You will still get guided tuition, from the teacher and plenty of support from your peers.
You will complete work for one internal assessment and an externally assessed three- panel folio. This will be a culmination of five years of visual arts learning.
Level 3 Painting is a UE approved subject.
