Color and Design

Knowledge of color theory and design principles are essential for anyone interested in art. Designed for students with varying levels of experience, students begin by learning about the fundamentals of design followed by color theory. A variety of media is explored and may include graphite, paper cutting, pen and ink, tempera paint, color pencil, watercolor, oil or dry pastels, mixed media, acrylic paint, and printmaking. Subjects may include designing patterns, painting, metamorphosis, hybridization, exploration of identity, and social issues. The work of great artists with relevant historical and cultural context are explored as students develop visual literacy and communication skills.
