                    Section  B (PAINTING) In  questions 4 - 6, Candidates were expected to create imaginative compositions, by  applying the elements of art according to the guiding principles. They were  also expected to consider perspective, appropriateness of context, as well as harmonious  colour combination. The skill of proportional and quality drawings is  fundamental in imaginative composition.

                    This question  was not quite popular among the candidates, probably because of its  requirements. Many of the works lacked unity, and there was no emphasis on the  centre of interest. The representation of students in the dining hall lacked  perspective, effective figure drawing, and appropriate graded tones. All this  made most of the works to look flat lacking the illusion of  three-dimensionality. All this led to loss of a substantial part of the  obtainable marks. |  |  |
