Description

A course is planned in consultation with the Director of Studies and is comprised of a selection of part-time classes in painting, drawing, printmaking and sculpture.

Normally the Continuing Studies programme begins in September although it is possible to enrol for spring and summer terms. Class units are supplemented by personal tutorials, gallery visits and lectures on fine art theory and practice. Continuing Studies students may also attend Diploma Course art history lectures.

Course Structure

A programme of study is based on attendance in tutored class units and it is possible to negotiate for the use of untutored studio facilities. Specialist areas such as the print studio and sculpture workshop may be used after an induction. With the necessary degree of commitment it is possible to build a portfolio of work for application for a foundation course.

If you already have a portfolio of work you may be able to supplement this for application to a degree or postgraduate course. Modification to the weekly pattern of study can be made in consultation with a personal tutor at any point during a term.

TUTORED CLASSES CAN BE SELECTED FROM THE OPEN STUDIO AND DAY AND EVENING CLASSES.

Available Subjects

  • Drawing/Life Drawing
  • Oil Painting
  • Watercolour
  • Printmaking
  • Sculpture

  • Certification

A certificate is awarded at the end of the period of study. Heatherley’s can provide full support for applications to further courses. This will include references and portfolio preparation.
