Students work a range of project topics using a variety of media and materials.
They include a major lettering exercise, the colour wheel, landscape and still-life. Students also work on painting exercises that focus on technical accuracy and colour mixing clarity. A substantial, individual painting follows these exercises. Students also work on mosaic, suitable for use on a front doorway, letterbox or wall. They also complete a recycling task.
