GCSE Art students will soon be undertaking their 10 hour art exam. This printable handout provides prompts which encourage students to consider how they have developed their ideas and how they have linked them to observations, the work of artists, media experimentation and use of techniques. It also encourages students to think carefully about what they still need to do before the exam day and what materials and prepping is needed before exam time starts. Each prompt provides space for students to write down their thoughts. This 6 page document can then be stuck into their sketchbooks to provide further evidence to the visiting moderator that there is a clear “creative journey” and that clear links have also been made to the four Assessment Objectives.

Includes step by step guide, materials lists, differentiation, cross subject links and links to the artist Hundertwasser. Fully illustrated. Also includes student guidance sheets that can be printed and handed out to support understanding.
Initially, students practice their observational drawing skills relating to landscape forms. They then use their imagination and research into the work of Hundertwasser to develop abstract compositions. They will then complete the work through vibrant use of colour.
This is a really exciting project that allows students to produce striking, vibrant paintings and drawings that look amazing when displayed as group of work. Students will love the results, and so will you when you see how stunning the work looks displayed in your art room.
