Introduction to AP art

PRACTICE - EXPERIMENTATION - REVISION

With your neighbor each select one of the following images from the digital exhibit to discuss. 

Drawing Work (non-digital) - 2D Piece (non- photography) - Photography Piece - Digital Piece

Go to the Key Vocabulary Tab and to support your conversation. 

Do you see these elements applied into the pieces you've selected? How? What was successful about these works? How does key art vocabulary aid in creating meaning in these artworks?

You will submit a portfolio of artwork for evaluation at the end of the school year. You will upload digital images of your work and commentary online as well as send in 5 physical copies of your artwork.

The Art and Design portfolios share a basic, two-section structure (SI and SW), which requires you to show a fundamental competence and range of understanding in visual concerns and methods. Each section contributes to the final portfolio score, which is on a 5-point scale.
