• Intermediate 2 Higher Content of the Written
  Paper
• Students will sit a one hour exam at Intermediate
  2 and a one hour and 30 minute exam at Higher
  level.
• At Intermediate 2 Higher the exam paper has two
  sections. Section 1 includes a question on the
  visual arts. This means that you could be asked
  to describe a portrait, figure, still life,
  natural environment, built environment, a fantasy
  or imagination theme. Section 2 has questions on
  Design. This means you could be asked to describe
  a piece of graphics, product, jewellery,
  textiles, architecture or interior.
• Make sure you answer only one question from each
  Section. For example,
• Section 1 Choose a theme that links to what you
  are doing in class. That may be a portrait, so
  you would answer the question on Portraiture
• Section 2 Choose a question that links to what
  you are designing in class. That may be product
  design or Jewellery or something else.
• Each question has two parts. An (a) part and a
  (b) part. Question (a) is about describing a
  picture in Section 1 and a piece of design in
  Section 2. Question (b) is about comparing two
  pieces of art work in Section 1. In Section 2 it
  is about comparing two pieces of design work.

Art Design

• Intermediate 2 Higher
• What do you need for Studying the Written paper ?
• You need to know and understand Art Design
  Vocabulary. This will help you answer the (a)

  colours, composition or the focal point in a
  piece of Art work

  aesthetics, ergonomics or techniques used in a
  piece of design work

  about in your Art Summary. What aspects or
  characteristics did you describe in each summary.
  What is their work like? What did they design,
  paint or make? How do the designers and artists

Art Design

• Intermediate 2 Higher
• Advice from past Students
• The (a) part question is a gift. All you need is
  common sense and knowledge of Art Design
• language.
• The (b) part question is easy if you have studied
  and know your summary. I found it easier
• answering the (b) questions first as you need to
  think hard in remembering your summary. As a
• result, do them first when you are fresh at the
  start of the exam.
• If you time your responses you will not run out
  of time. If you run out of time, you have usually
• written too much for one answer and not enough
  for another. This will loose you marks.
