NCEA Level 3 Painting
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Karin Aaltio.
NCEA Level 3 Visual Art: Painting
At Level 3 you can select two Visual Art subjects.
This is a practical course which aims to build and extend on the skills developed in Level 2 Painting. You will learn different painting and drawing techniques as the central means to generate, analyse, clarify and regenerate ideas towards the production of your own original work.
We will teach you how to develop your skills, learning how to use appropriate and established painting and drawing materials and techniques to clarify your ideas.
Your work will be developed in a systematic approach towards an external Painting folio board and evaluate ideas and methods, both yours and established practice.
