This standard is about showing you understand how painting actually works by using drawing as your evidence. You need to demonstrate knowledge of painting conventions—the specific techniques, materials, and visual rules that painters use—through sketches, studies, and drawn work that informs your understanding of the medium.
What to do, grades and common mistakes
- ·Select and use drawing materials, techniques, and processes with awareness of how they work in painting
- ·Show understanding of painting conventions (like how colour, tone, line, and composition function in the medium)
- ·Create drawn work—such as sketches, studies, colour trials, or monochromatic experiments—that demonstrates this understanding
- ·Arrange visual elements (line, shape, space, colour, tone, texture) and apply principles (balance, rhythm, contrast) deliberately in your drawings
You use drawing and selected techniques to show you understand basic painting conventions and how visual elements work.
You deliberately choose specific drawing techniques and processes, showing you understand particular painting conventions and can apply them with consideration of how they achieve your outcome.
