2009 23 November 2005 Date version published 23 November 2005 Registration date Practical Art Domain Visual Arts Subfield Internal Assessment 6 3 Credits Level Investigate and use ideas and methods in the context of a drawing study in painting Visual Arts 3.2

This achievement standard involves investigating ideas and methods relating to art and art works in the context of the drawing study in painting . It also involves using established drawing processes, procedures, materials and techniques appropriate to ideas and methods studied, and using drawing to generate, analyse and clarify ideas . HOW ? Collect, research, assemble & collate information including subject, theme, pictorial issues, methods & techniques & artist references Use drawing to think on paper. Use drawing as a process where ideas are systematically explored in a continuum. Clarify your intentions . Process all your collected information & recombine & transform to make original work Work beyond the artist models

Respond to, analyse & make decisions about what you have done
Present options
Evidence of the ability to generate, analyse and clarify ideas will be identified in a range of work within the selected field. This may involve different processes, procedures, materials & techniques , all of which can be understood as drawing . In effect, being able to make paintings is dependent upon recognizing & using drawing as a thinking & working process .

Explanatory Notes
Processes refers to the use of particular techniques with tools, technologies and materials.
Procedures refers to the order and nature of steps taken in getting from the beginning to the end of the problem.
Synthesise refers to the ability to bring together ideas and methods from different sources, to integrate them in the development of the student’s own work.
Evidence of the ability to generate, analyse and clarify ideas will be identified in a range of work within the selected field.
Systematically means to reflect critically on each step in the development of work. Information generated from this reflection will be used to inform and clarify ideas.
Clarifying ideas requires students to specify parameters for investigation, it does not imply that these ideas will be resolved.
This may involve different processes, procedures, materials and techniques, all of which can be understood as drawing . This practice is dependent upon recognising and using drawing as a thinking and working process.
Drawing is an ongoing decision-making process that enables a continuum to be established and maintained. Aspects of drawing are also identifiable in finished work.
Painting drawing may include drawing notes, sketches, monochromatic and colour studies, collage, photographs, digital processes, developmental and finished works.
Painting drawing should be used as central means of practical investigation. Where it is appropriate, students may include processes, procedures, methods and techniques from other art fields.
The drawing study should include work belonging to the cultural milieu and interests of the student and involve the study of work and ideas from recent and established practice. Where relevant, this evidence could also take account of the work of contemporary New Zealand artists.
Digital processes may be used as part of the drawing process. Teachers and candidates may choose to combine traditional practice with other processes such as digital image-making. Successful Visual Arts teaching programmes will ensure that candidates maintain control of the processes, both digital and traditional, used in the production of their work.

The evidence may be based on an idea, subject matter, problem or situation, and must be related to established practice.
Note: Learning from established practice is the use of artists as models of practice; investigating the context within which art works are made to inform the students own work. The evidence will be critically edited, ordered and related to show the nature and order of steps taken.

Referencing the subject
Produce one drawing to establish the subject for this body of work.
You may work directly from the subject or from photographs.
Consider pictorial elements such as viewpoint, perspective & tonal values.
Consider what aspects of the subject you want to investigate in the works.
Refer to the aspects of recent & established practice you have already researched to inform the direction & decisions you make in this drawing.
Select materials methods & processes appropriate to the subject & issues addressed & the painting process you will use.
The evidence MUST be critically edited, ordered & related to show the nature & order of steps taken. The objective of this task is to investigate the subject matter selected as the starting point & to identify the content & pictorial elements Level 3 Visual Arts Painting Tasks FOR 3.2 TASK 1

Select materials methods & processes appropriate to the subject & issues addressed & the painting process you will use.
The evidence MUST be critically edited, ordered & related to show the nature & order of steps taken. The objective of this task is to investigate the subject matter selected as the starting point & to identify the content & pictorial elements Level 3 Visual Arts Painting Tasks FOR 3.2

TASK 2
Developing & investigating ideas in the context of a drawing study
Produce three small drawings or paint studies that present a series of ideas in a continuum drawn from the subject matter selected & with reference to your research into established practice .
Size of work to be A5 approximately
Respond to each work as you proceed & evaluate & refine your ideas as they develop. Your drawings should also demonstrate consideration for the selected painting processes & the pictorial issues implicit in the processes to be used
‘ Use an analytical and evaluative approach to investigate a particular form of artwork to identify specific ideas and methods to develop a coherent drawing study’
Show your thinking & working process
The objective of this task is to investigate the subject matter & generate a range of ideas with reference to the artists studied & the pictorial issues identified in previous work

Use established drawing processes, procedures, materials & techniques appropriate to ideas & methods studied
Produce two painting to demonstrate your ability to use the selected paint process, materials, techniques & methods of application appropriately.
In these paintings you should continue the exploration & clarification of ideas however the specific focus should be on the method & use of media in a drawing context.
Refer to recent & established practice & experiment with the materials & supports available.
TASK 3 The objective of this sequence is to identify a selected drawing approach & the materials, methods, techniques & processes appropriate to the selected subject & field of study with reference to established practice

Use drawing to generate, analyse & clarify ideas.
Conclude the series with three works with the specific intention of clarifying the ideas, pictorial elements, methods, materials, techniques & processes in conjunction with the artist model research.
This series should continue from the previous investigations & demonstrate the ability to evaluate, select, refine & re-present ideas in a drawing context.
The final work in the series should represent a conclusion to the body of work in all aspects.
Size may vary but no work is to be larger than A4 in cumulative dimensions (approximately)
TASK 4 The objective of this task is to demonstrate a systematic & purposeful approach to generating, analysing & clarifying ideas based on recent & established practice

Information drawings establishing the subject matter, pictorial issues & possible techniques Development sequence working out subject & pictorial issues from information drawings 3.2 sample submission

Series of drawings to explore method & pictorial issues with reference to artist exemplars
