This course is designed for interested students who are serious and passionate about refining their skills within 2D & 3D art. The expectation of candidates is to invest time and effort in producing the required work to receive college credit post-secondary education. Taking this course is an opportunity to place out of introductory level art courses coming into college. Students will build a portfolio through a Sustained Investigation and Selected Works from that development. The course emphasizes making art as an ongoing process which guides the student through contextual awareness and critical decision-making in their creative progress. 

AP Studio Art through the College Board will assess students through a refined art portfolio determining a level of mastery for credit that will be submitted at the end of the school year, rather than taking a written exam as in other AP courses.
