Photography This course encourages students to express their creative ideas through Photography. Students' critical-thinking skills and creative abilities are nurtured through student-directed projects. Students learn a range of visual communication techniques and how to make visually striking compositions. They learn about the techniques and processes used by established artists and apply these in the taking of their own photographs. One requirement of this course is that students have a phone with a camera.

Painting This course encourages students to express their creative ideas in the context of Painting. Students study the techniques of established artists' work and apply these techniques to their own paintings. Students then develop their own work through a series of paintings following their own interests and styles. Students may produce their finished work on skateboards, canvas or hardboard. The Art department staff support the individual learning of each student.
