How It Works

Students receive access to their own online studio where they can work through their course. Units and assignments are listed along with supporting resources, video tutorials for skills development, step by step guides etc. Photographs of students' completed work are uploaded to their college e portfolio for assessment and constructive, friendly written feedback on how to progress. Additionally students are invited to discuss with an experienced and qualified personal tutor their progress and receive face to face verbal feedback, encouragement and support. Students may also benefit from relationships with their fellow online students as they can view profiles and comment on each others' art work if they wish.

Structure Of The Course
This exciting course is designed to ensure you produce a stimulating and rewarding sculpture project (s) which allow you to develop your knowledge, skills, understanding and confidence in expressing your ideas and feelings through sculpture. Exploratory Stage: This first part of the course takes you through a programme of developing skills in sculpture. You can choose to specialise in any form of sculpture, ceramic, wire, clay, stone, mixed media. Or you can explore all forms to a lesser degree. This stage can be skipped if you are accomplished and confident in drawing. Pathway Stage: In this second part of the course you will be asked to make a sculpture project which is negotiated with your tutor. To get started you could simply sculpt from memory, direct observation or by intuition, you could make photographs and develop them into drawings and sculpture, you could be inspired by some common themes or you could rework or develop further a piece of existing work (yours or by another artist) with the the guidance and support of an experienced artist tutor.

Common themes include:'Identity'"Natural forms''The way I look' 'My world'"I Me & Mine"'Bully'"Success'"Acceptance'"Delicate""Overhead and Underneath'"Surfaces'"Precious""Through The Keyhole'"My Dream World""Lost and found"
