Continuing in Visual Arts

Visual Art courses (AVI) allow students to explore traditional art mediums such as drawing, painting, sculpture, and printmaking, as well as learn about art history, art criticism and design concepts.  These courses progressively develop skills from grade nine to grade twelve, while expanding the range of mediums and techniques introduced. As students progress through these courses the amount of freedom surrounding topic choices, concepts and mediums increases.
