Visual Art Level 3 is a course for students who would like to broaden and deepen their understanding and application of artistic practice, perception and visual literacy. Visual Art Level 3 has been developed for students seeking a pathway to tertiary studies or a career within the visual arts but is also appropriate for students wanting to pursue a personal/amateur interest in art. Students develop a resolved body of work in a single studio area. The course encourages students to apply problem-solving skills, think creatively and analytically, and engage with traditional, modern and contemporary art forms. Study of Visual Art Level 3 promotes skill refinement, confidence, selfdirection and innovation, all of which help prepare students for their future.

What will I learn from this course? • create a body of artwork in your chosen studio area that will culminate in an exhibition at the end of year • produce art journals containing investigations, research, idea generation, experiments and media tests

Art Studio Practice provides an opportunity for learners who have completed Visual Art 3 to continue their art practice at the TASC Level 3 and thus extend the breadth and depth of their learning. The course allows learners to either continue practice in a studio/ discipline area or to explore a new studio/discipline area within the context of creating and refining an exhibition proposal for a body of work, and completing it to resolution.

What will I learn from this course? • to manage an exhibition proposal to final display, simulating successful art professionals • to undertake research that informs and enhances the student’s work from technical and conceptual levels • the confidence to make informed critical judgments of their own work and that of others.
