At King’s, we have small study groups that allow for individual attention, and tutorials and workshops that enable you to pursue personal interests and disciplines within your own work. Wardle House has facilities for Fine Art (Painting, Printmaking and Sculpture), Three-Dimensional Design, Ceramics and with ever-increasing digital facilities, the opportunity to develop Photography and Graphics skills are constantly increasing. First-class teaching facilitates students to excel within their chosen area with specialist staff covering all aspects of the specification. Our location allows us to take advantage of spectacular local environments and, with the addition of trips and enrichment activities, the potential to explore more diverse locations and subject matter is boundless. Staff teaching this specialism have worked within the creative industries and had years of experience assisting students generate highly personal and professional-quality portfolios that have led to diverse careers within varied visual arenas. What will I study during the course? You will learn the language of visual imagery through the analysis and evaluative critique of both your own and other work. You will develop technical skills in the use of painting, printmaking and sculpture as the three main disciplines allowing for huge diversity and range within these. Exploration of varied media is encouraged and one-to-one tutorials allow you to pursue personal interests and disciplines as appropriate. Work is enhanced through the use of critical and contextual studies with visits to museums and galleries in the UK and abroad.
Students will have ideally completed a GCSE in Art, Craft and Design or Textiles attaining a grade 6 / B or higher. A love of the subject is essential with the ability to produce visual images from observation, imagination and personal experience.
