The International Summer School of Scotland’s summer Art program has been carefully designed to enable students of all levels and abilities uncover their artistic potential.The summer art program is set to be a unique experience, providing group teaching in an array of styles to ensure that every student finds an area in which to shine. Whether students already have a passion for a particular artistic technique or are beginners hoping to awaken their creativity, this art program offers something for everyone.
Students will study a wide range of methods, from line drawing and oil painting to more contemporary practices such as still photography and cartoon illustration. Their projects could be as diverse as painting a self-portrait onto canvas to designing an album cover for their favourite band – the possibilities are endless!

In terms of location, few settings lend themselves to the budding artist as well as St Andrews. Not only is the superb natural scenery a stunning subject for landscape art, we are also ideally placed to visit some of Britain’s best-known art galleries in nearby Dundee and Edinburgh. We take full advantage of both elements and ensure that our students are never short of inspiration.The advantages of the relaxed and stimulating environment we offer at the International Summer School of Scotland are clear in the work that is produced by the students during their stay. To acknowledge their achievements, work is put on display in a final week exhibition for their peers and other staff.
