Fine Art for 16 to 18 Year Olds Short Course

Course description

Our fine art short course for 16 to 18 year olds gives students a week of practical learning, exploring and experimenting with materials to find new ways of expressing ideas.

To gain inspiration, the class will go over the work of modern and contemporary artists, and investigate scale and the impact of creating artwork in different sizes and formats.

In the second half of the week, students will develop their own fine art project, which they will share with the group at the end of the course.
