Together we will develop our knowledge, skills and understanding of Art and Artists. We will research their ideas and work, discuss likes dislikes, select pieces to develop into our own ideas and work.
This will then allow our individual style to appear. I have for many of my teaching years followed the 5 w’s system, it helped to pinpoint our purposes, ideas and requirements. I apply the 5ws to everything, I am very forgetful, so it allows me to remember key points.
