What will I be learning in Art and Design?

This unit will give you the opportunity to explore, investigate and learn about the beauty of natural forms. You will be looking at Shells in detail, recording their unique structure and pattern using a range of art materials including pencil, pen, watercolour, oil pastel, ICT and Printmaking. You will be asked to research artists, designers and craftsperson’s, who use shells as inspiration when creating their own artwork. You will then use these visual investigations to help you to transform your own artwork into a repeat pattern (using ICT) and collagraph print. You will also be expected to evaluate your own and other class members progress through this unit making constructive comments on each others work using specific art and design vocabulary.

From this unit you will develop the following skills in Art and Design.

Explore
 
   You will be able to use a variety of approaches when exploring and experimenting with ideas, selecting appropriate information and resources in order to develop your work.

Investigate    You will be able to investigate and develop a range of practical skills using the qualities of materials purposefully to suit your design intentions.

Analyse    You will be able to compare and comment on different ideas, methods and approaches used by artists, craftsperson’s and designers, making specific comments about the environment in which the artwork was made.

Evaluate    You will be able to discuss your own work and that of others and consider how you may adapt and refine your ideas, skills and processes.
