The course builds on the basic elements of art and provides essential tools for artistic expression. It aims at developing skills and technical proficiency in visual art, with special emphasis in drawing and painting.

The course will also provide students tutorials and practical exercises to develop and improve creative and artistic abilities and explore the various media, investigate visual and other sources of information which can be used or related to art. It also offers the basic critical and analytical tools to understand the nature of visual thinking and develop appropriate competencies for creative thought and link artwork with artists who have dealt with various issues and procedures.

The O-Level Course provides different sessions on all mediums and techniques (e.g. pencil shading, perspective, still life drawing and painting, watercolour, pen and ink, acrylics etc).
