AP 2D Art and Design

In this course students will demonstrate a thorough understanding of the elements of art and principles of design through an investigative experimentation of ideas, materials, and processes using electronic media in conjunction with traditional art mediums, materials, and processes. Students will learn and value the investigative process of recording ideas, solving problems, and using these ideas for artwork creation. Students will use decision making skills to assess visual problems. Students will become active communicators in the art making process with self, instructors, peers, and the art community. Students will develop and choose five high-quality works that are excellent in concept, composition, and execution to submit for the Selected Works section in their final portfolio and submit fifteen images for the Sustained Investigation section of their final portfolio. This course satisfies the PA Arts and Humanities Standards. This course is also a Seton Hall Dual Enrollment Course (3 Credits - 2D Design and Color).
