Portfolio Preparation with Andrew Carson

Portfolio Preparation with Andrew Carson

What to expect

Thinking about applying to art college? Interested in building a portfolio? Or simply looking to develop your skills and confidence in art?

Join artist Andrew Carson for this four-week practical course exploring the foundations of observational drawing and creative practice. Through life drawing, still life, photography, and material exploration, participants will develop their ability to look closely, see differently, and translate ideas into visual form.

The course will introduce a range of materials, techniques and approaches, while encouraging participants to explore their own artistic interests and strengths. Students are invited to bring along existing artwork, sketchbooks, ideas and projects for guidance and feedback throughout the programme.

Whether you are preparing a portfolio for further study or simply have a passion for art, this course offers a supportive environment to develop your skills, experiment with new media, and deepen your understanding of contemporary art practice.
