C & G Foundation Art 14-week Sept 2025

Description

Course will run weekly in term time, on Thursday 10am - 3pm Starting 11th September 2025 Suitable for beginners, those who are 'dabbling' and those already creating and interested in filling in those foundation basics. This fantastic course covers the vital elements of art, including colour, line, shape, form, value, texture, space, and guides the learner through the processes of experimentation and planning, to produce a series of 6 designed samples covering many different techniques and media. Students will explore the use of a sketchbook to record and evaluate their experimentation. We will provide a wide range of art materials, and provide advice on starting your own collection of art supplies. Students on the course will have the opportunity to come to our drop-in sessions for free for practice and catch-up. At the end of the course participants have the option to put in for formal assessment with City and Guilds to obtain two units, (7156-201) Developing design ideas and (7156 - 202) Using sampling techniques for 2D and 3D work. Further study can lead to C&G Level 2 Certificate in Creative Techniques or Textiles. (Please note, if you would like to be formally assessed for the City and Guilds foundation units, there is an additional £100, not included in the course fee, which covers registration and assessment.) At South West Art Courses, we keep group size small at a maximum of 8 learners. This ensures a high degree of teacher contact time while enabling enough participants for engaging group discussion. . Deposit 25% required at the time of booking with the balance due before enrolment in September. Payment plans available. Please email for details. Cancellation Policy We regret we are unable to offer a refund unless the space can be filled. We provide tea and coffee (and biscuits), please bring a packed lunch.
