Art and Design (Fine Art)

Course summary

Art is all around us, everywhere you look. You can see Art not only in galleries but in the graphics of a magazine cover, wallpaper, and even in the design of clothes. It is clear to see the important part that Art plays in our visual world. Students follow the Edexcel course for Art and Design Fine Art. Students will explore a range of materials and skills such as oil painting, charcoal, acrylic, printing, drawing, mix media and much more. We encourage students to find their passion for the subject, and experiment with this, to produce their most successful work. We go on some great trips, both home and abroad. The Louvre, Tate Modern and Yorkshire Sculpture Park are some of the galleries we visit regularly
