NCEA L2 Painting B

Course Description

Level 2 Painting -Semester B (Code:PTG2B) - This course is designed for students keen to extend their Painting and Printmaking skills. Many students will choose to do this in media such as acrylic and oil paint, while others look to upskill in digital painting. Woodcut and engraving printmaking processes are also used.

Mixed media and some sculpture is also encouraged as students explore their choice of ideas. Observational and freehand drawing skills extended and students may also wish to draw digitally. 

The painting process will support the development of research and thinking skills.                              Students will choose their own ideas and themes to explore in this course. 

In Semester B (PTG2B), there are two choices.

8 credits for Internals (PTG2B only) or 16 credits for one Internal and 1 external standard. The latter includes a 12 credit - 2 panel portfolio. To do this, both Semester A (PTG2A) and Semester B (PTG2B) must be chosen. 

The planning and successful production of the external folio will allow for 'course endorsement'. 

With teacher guidance, every student will produce their own range of ideas and artworks. It will often reflect their interests and aspirations.
