L2 Art Painting

Course Description

This course enables ākonga (students) to develop ideas and creative approaches to make artworks in Painting.  Ākonga create their own artworks while learning about the work of New Zealand and International artists and the cultural and social contexts that these artworks reflect.  Ākonga can work towards an individual standard or multiple standards including developing a body of work for the external folio standard.

The theme for 2023, ‘Sense of Place,’ allows students to explore landscape, architecture, nature and still-life and their attachment to these subjects. Students can collect objects that have value to their culture, such as person-made or natural (flora and fauna) items. They will collect, take photos, make arrangements or assemblages, drawing from inside and outside to develop a theme.   

The first Internal aims to encourage students to embrace the use of subject matter to explore a range of media as well as exploring conventions assorted with different approaches.  The second Internal will develop and extend students ideas about containment and the relationship of objects in different spaces.
