Issue Date: April 2024
Not Applicable
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to develop drawings which represent and communicate the concept. This is a core unit which complements all the specialisation units. It is different from the drawing specialisation units which focus on drawing as an art form. This unit goes beyond the scope of CUVCOR07B Use drawing techniques to represent the object or idea and CUVCOR08B Produce drawings to represent and communicate the concept in terms of the complexity of skill requirement, use of techniques and sophistication of representation. This work would usually be carried out under supervision.
This is a core unit which underpins many other specialisation units.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of endorsement.
You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)
Prerequisites
This unit has linkages to all the specialisation units in the Visual Arts Craft and Design Training Package, and to units from other Training Packages.
Employability Skills
This unit contains employability skills.
Evidence Required
List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package. | |
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit | The following evidence is critical to the judgement of competence in this unit: production of a series of drawings which demonstrate a command of the selected techniques and which successfully communicate the concept. |
Context of and specific resources for assessment | The assessment context must provide for: practical demonstration of skills using selected tools and materials to produce and present drawings which represent and communicate the concept. |
Method of assessment | Assessment may incorporate a range of methods to assess performance and the application of essential underpinning knowledge, and might include: direct observation of the production of drawings evaluation of drawings questioning and discussion about candidate's intentions and the work outcome verbal or written reports review of portfolios of evidence third party workplace reports of performances by the candidate. |
Assessment of this unit requires access to the materials, resources and equipment needed to apply drawing techniques to represent and communicate the concept. | |
Submission Requirements

Assessment Tasks
Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
Required skills: literacy skills sufficient to read product safety labels and instructions and to prepare drawings for presentation numeracy skills sufficient to determine layout issues and to deal with scaling. |
Required knowledge: physical properties and capabilities of a wide range of materials and tools used in drawing general knowledge of the elements and principles of design and their specific application to drawing general knowledge of different approaches to drawing and how other practitioners use drawing to represent the concept awareness of copyright, moral rights and intellectual property issues and legislation in relation to drawing environmental and occupational health and safety issues associated with the tools and materials used for drawing. |
The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included. | |
The concept may relate to an object or idea and may include: | crafted objects design concepts digital work installations movement sequence paintings or prints performance sculptures story, narrative technical solutions for a work or design. |
Sources of information may be: | catalogues colour charts and boards nature stories or narratives technical texts the work of other artists and designers. |
Techniques may include: | digital drawing techniques integration of text and drawing linear marks of differing intensity and character linear marks to produce illusion of form in space linear perspective positive/negative space scaling techniques tonal range to produce illusion of form in space washes. |
Materials may include: | a range of graphite pencils a range of papers bark/wood boards charcoal colour pencils crayons |
inks natural ochres pastels and chalks pigments solvents watercolour. | |
The presentation context may include: | exhibition proposals grant applications projections proposals for product development proposals in response to a brief publications visualisation of a object, product or idea. |
Preparing drawings for presentation may involve: | adding captions, text to drawings cleaning drawings mounting drawings preparing drawings for printing/reproducing scanning drawings and preparing them for electronic storage or transmissions. |
The purpose and scope of the drawings: | relate to their presentation context. |
Equipment may include: | air brush blades brushes computer digital camera drawing and design applications printer rags scanner sponges sticks. |
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
