Subject Description

Teacher in Charge: Ms K. Willcox.

In this semester course, students will compile photographs of their personal interests as research and transform these images into digital collages.

In the second half of the course, students will learn practical drawing skills. Students will generate work based on their school context. Ink, a variety of dry media, paint and collage will be explored in order to give students a wide-range of media to explore and develop their own work.
