You will make art as an artist does and develop you r project from its conceptual beginning to its physical end. The course wi ll help you develop a deeper understanding of art and how as practitioners we think and realise work.\n\nThis course provides skill based learning i n order to deepen the understanding and applications of the visual languag e that surrounds us.
