Art And Design

At Stanmore, we pride ourselves on providing an interesting array of provision which includes Photography, Art and Architecture, Graphic Design and Art and Design.

Our enthusiastic and creative teachers are keen to encourage students to experiment with new techniques, materials, processes, creative software (where part of course content).

They aim to assist you to develop your creative skills, knowledge, problem-solving (where required) and to see to it that you achieve the right qualification to enable you to progress either to university or into employment.

As a creative individual studying Art and Design at Stanmore College, I learned to use different materials and mediums that gave me the ability to express my vast interests in a variety of design language formats. I joined Stanmore College, obtained my GCSEs and submerged myself into Digital Art and Design. I learned a foundation of artistry, several Adobe Creative Suites applications and my creative capabilities.  Competency with software languages allowed me to be more personal with my projects.

I have experimented with various skills such as screen printing, photoshop, cyanotypes, animation, graphic design, sculpting, crafting, and so on. I have also explored materials such as clay, plaster, and styrofoam which I have grown to be very familiar with through experimentation. This course has been an anchor which ascertained me to pursue this architectural path.

The teachers and tutors were very helpful and good at giving tips and advice. They knew a lot of artists and had really good ideas which they shared with their students.
