This course will help you make the transition from self-motivated student to independent artist. With the help of your tutor and the course guidelines, you will plan your own study programme. You should normally have already completed the Level 2 course in sculpture before embarking on this course, but direct entry is possible for more experienced artists who wish to work one-to-one with a professional tutor. All students choose their own tutor from the OCA portfolio of advanced sculpture tutors. The course aims to improve the quality of practical work; further develop use of a personal visual language; help students to plan and complete a major programme of practical work and become independent as artists.
