  • A Fine Art theory is included to allow for both technique and theory to develop in unison.
  • Take part in discussions.
  • Develop your talents in practical exercises and more detailed skill sessions in theory.

What you will study

Students will be introduced to the following:

  • A range of technical principles including perspective, composition, tone and form.
  • A variety of mediums and their appropriate application.
  • Critical analysis of their work and others to inform their practice.
