“Studying A-Level Fine Art at Carmel is the perfect choice for anyone wanting to develop not only their skills handling different mediums, but also their self-confidence and creativity. The environment crafted by the exceptionally supportive staff has allowed for me to push myself, increase my independence and learn how to successfully approach large projects.

“The course provides a range of professional equipment and materials, giving students opportunities to try techniques that help build-up unique skillsets. The fast-paced nature of the course has helped me to develop skills that are applicable outside of studying Fine Art, such as time management. The staff are always encouraging you to explore your creative ideas in as much depth as possible and if you have any questions, they are always willing to provide solutions and share advice”

“Studying Fine Art at Carmel has been incredibly liberating, knowing that I’m working in an environment where creativity is only encouraged has been very reassuring.
So far, this course has enabled me to experiment with a range of different techniques, thanks to the advanced facilities the course offers, allowing students to constantly challenge themselves and try new methods.

“Teachers will always find time to discuss and encourage ideas, making you feel as though no question related to the course is too big or too small to answer, and clearly value every student. As well as this, working amongst students who are also as passionate about the subject as you are motivates you to create work to the best of your ability, adding to the welcoming feel of each lesson.”

“The Fine Art course is a place where creativity can thrive, encouraging students to think outside the box when developing their own work, whilst being supported by our excellent teachers. Fine Art has encouraged me to become more self-disciplined when prioritising tasks, ensuring I can reach my full artistic potential.

“This is aided by the range of facilities, which have enabled me to explore a variety of techniques, reaffirming the freedom to experiment creatively. Although it is a demanding subject, the enjoyable classroom environment, alongside the immense support, makes Fine Art a subject worth studying.”
