Art Materials & Printmaking

This course may be taken in 7th or 8th grade, but not both. Art 7 is a prerequisite for this course if taking it as a 7th grader. So when signing up for seventh grade classes, know that the student will get Art 7 in trimester 1 or 2 so that Crafts/Printmaking can be taken in the following trimester.

The course looks at the history of art as craft as well as printmaking. Different cultures, artists, time periods or regions are introduced depending upon the type of craft or printing technique being explored. Possible crafts units include: millifiori techniques with polymer clay, paper-making, quilling, batik, and metal repousse. Possible printmaking units will cover any number of processes such as linoleum block printing, mono-printing, silkscreen printing or embossing.
