Level 2 BTEC Diploma in Art and Design This one-year course will develop your creative and technical skills. You will study the formal elements of art and design (form, line, tone, texture and colour). At the beginning of the course you will complete a six-week induction where you’ll study a range of skills using two and three dimensional media including: drawing, painting, textiles, fashion, sculpture, 3D design, moving image, interactive media, digital media and the history of art and design. At the end of this induction you will be given the option to choose art, fashion or media as your specialist pathway for the rest of the course. The course includes practical projects, written work and off-site gallery visits and research. You’ll be expected to devote some of your spare time to further develop your skills and expertise.
