Painting & Drawing
This course provides an exciting introduction to drawing and painting through experimenting with a variety of materials such as pencil, ink, charcoal, acrylic paint. Learners will develop skills through a range of tasks, drawing and painting from life, from photographs and through looking at the work and ideas of other artists in history. Learners may incorporate their own ideas as well as taking part in more structured projects.
Teaching and learning will be based on a variety of methods including tutor presentation and one-to-one personalised guidance. This is an opportunity to be creative, experiment with different drawing and painting techniques and to have fun.

It is important that you refer to sections “What do I need to bring” and “Is there anything else I need to know””.
