This is a semester course required for all sophomore students. Throughout the semester we will focus on understanding the elements of art and principles of design, in conjunction with learning new artistic techniques. Projects will allow you as an artist to add creative touches and unique, personalized details to each project. You are expected to follow the guidelines for each project but are able to make artistic changes. A variety of mediums (art materials) will be used during the duration of this course. Mediums used include drawing, painting, watercolor, sculpture and printmaking. A project schedule is listed at the bottom of this page.
