2. You are going to choose your own topic
The purpose of your Personal Study is
to teach you something: to help you
develop as an artist and to strengthen
your understanding of art-related
issues. You will be creating Art work
around your chosen topic as well as an
essay. The most successful Personal
Studies communicate ‘a strong sense of
involvement through personal
enthusiasm and a commitment to
sustain the investigation’. So basically
make sure you choose a topic you are
interested in.
3. http://www.pinterest.com/beaumontart/
You should already have a Pinterest account. If not make
sure you create one this week and begin to follow
Beaumont Art Pinterest. Create an album of ideas for
your Personal Study. This is going to be extremely useful
for helping you with creative ideas and finding original,
relevant artists for your chosen topic.
4. Your first task is to decide what you want your topic to be.
It can be fairly broad to begin with so don’t panic! Tasks…
1. Look on the Student Guide website link below and read
‘Art Project ideas: a guide to subject matter selection’ .
Create a brain storm of ideas

2. Create a Pinterest album and pin any pins of subjects
matter and media that you may want to consider for your
year 13 project
3. Choose an Artist that links to the theme you are
considering. Print an image of their work and ideally take
a photograph that links to their work. You will be create a
transcription next week (you own interpretation will get
you more marks)
