Art and Design (Fine Art)

Course summary

Art at A Level leads on to an Art Foundation course - Art College provides valuable training in an ever-increasing range of specialisations and skills associated with art and design. This is the route that many WHS artists take for a year before going on to a wide range of Art-based degree courses. As well as the more obvious careers, many things we see around us daily have been professionally designed by an artist, designer or architect. Art college graduates are influential in food packaging, fashion promotion, special effects for films and the music industry, museum displays, car interiors, photography, advertising, illustration, and jewellery design, to name but a few.
