Course programme

You'll start by exploring some of the formal issues of drawing through observation, looking carefully at objects and their qualities.

You'll then learn how to turn these drawings into paintings by:

  • translating from tone and line into colour, from one surface and scale to another
  • using secondary sources
  • organising the pictorial space

You'll also learn how to use and re-think ideas sourced from your own preparatory material, such as sketches, photographic documentation, objects and text.
