Art 1: Learning the Fundamentals of Art and Design

Left: We do a variety of projects in Art 1 to explore how to use the Elements of Art and Principles of Design to create quality artwork. The slides to the left feature a selection of student work from the 21-22 school year. 

Students learned about shading, value, contrast and gradation when making Shattered Drawings. 

In our Psychedelic Poster project, students learned how to maximize space and incorporate lettering into the meaning of their images.
