AS Fine Art Exam: Structure
Structure is the 2017 title for the AS Fine Art exam project (Unit 2). You will have a period of 8-10 weeks (plus the Spring half term and Easter holiday) to develop your ideas through preparatory studies before spending a day in the Art department realising your final outcome as part of the 10 hour, controlled assessment. You should aim to be ambitious in your final outcome and presentation.
The exam paper is full of ideas to help you get started. Your art teachers will also set class and home work tasks that will enable you to have the best start possible for your exam project. Make sure everything is documented clearly in your sketchbook.
