Why study Fine Art?
The obvious answer is to help you acquire the skills that will help you to become an artist. Studying Fine Art encourages students to develop individual ways of thinking and of expressing themselves in visual and theoretical terms. It fosters an awareness and responsiveness to the world around you and within you. It recognises the value of individual approaches, and provides an environment for learning and confidence building that can be manifested in numerous personal and professional ways. One of the most important things to remember about Fine Art is that there is no map, no agreed way of doing things. At IT Sligo we provide students with the skills and resources to make this an exciting journey.
