ART - Culture Clash painting & printmaking

9PAI
Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Whaea R. Clemence.

This course focusses on unpacking what culture can be and then personalising your own art-making response to it. Culture is often mistaken for just ethnicity, but its not! It's how you live your life. The primary art-making focus is on painting and printmaking. 

In this course you will learn foundational skills in drawing, composition and idea collecting. You will get to try lots of new things, be a bit messy, and expressive and have some fun. Your voice in art-making matters, and we want you to learn some skills in visualising it. 

We work in a personalised manner in Visual Arts because we all come to art making with different skills and styles. If you want to focus on drawing and painting faces, then that is what you can do. If you want to learn about painting in an anime style, you can do that too.
