Art & Design
CHOOSE ART A LEVEL IF...
• You are naturally creative and want to explore new ideas
• You enjoy the contextual side of art, investigating relevant artists and galleries
• You are ready to work more independently as an artist, whilst also collaborating with teachers and peers
WHERE COULD IT TAKE ME?
Art at A Level leads on to an Art Foundation course – Art college provides valuable training in an everincreasing range of specialisations and skills associated with art and design. This is the route that many WHS artists take for a year before going on to a wide range of Art-based degree courses. As well as the more obvious careers, many things we see around us on a daily basis have been professionally designed by an artist, designer or architect. Art college graduates are influential in food packaging, fashion promotion, special effects for films and the music industry, museum displays, car interiors, photography, advertising, illustration, and jewellery design, to name but a few.
