Diploma in Fine Art

Artists today are living in an integrated cultural and social landscape surrounded by constant enquiries and debates of how art should be perceived. Insightful artists are becoming increasingly vital in inspiring the world by capturing and transforming the ordinary into extraordinary.

Fine Art to Craft Minds

A great artist is also a great thinker that pictures ordinary things differently. It takes a great observation towards life to be able to inspire the world with uncommon common-sense; and that's the role of a profound artist.

Syllabus of Self Discovery

The training starts from molding one's aesthetic senses and skills; with studies in Art History and traditional painting techniques and eventually advances into the creator's mind by developing individual ideas toward original masterpieces.

The journey of self-discovery in the program will be facilitated with not only practice and lesson but frequently-held exhibitions to cultivate art appreciation and initiate dialogs between the artists and the public, giving you an open mind when the artwork elicits food for thoughts in the eye of the beholder.
