Year 10 Visual Arts

Year 10 Visual Arts is an elective course, where students study Visual Arts for 6 periods a cycle.  The focus area for year 10 is "People and the World" with two main topics. 

Portraiture: Homage to an individual

In the first Unit of work, Portraiture: Homage to an Individual, students develop their understanding of the structure of the head and proportions of the face. Following this they explore techniques that show character and personality. This is done using a range of drawing techniques. 


Using these skills students choose a person who they admire and they pay homage to that person through an expressive acrylic canvas painting.
