Art and Design
The Year 8 course builds on the foundational Year 7 lessons on the expressive qualities of line, shape and colour to create mood. This course introduces the students to the exciting world of the Visual Arts. The students are exposed to a wider range of artists and art styles and develop an understanding of the various roles that art plays in our society. Individuals will develop knowledge and understanding of the basic Elements and Principles of Design using both 2D and 3D media and processes. The students have the opportunity to create a ceramic 3D creature and a variety of drawings and paintings.
