ART I

Basic supplies (approximately $20.00 - $30.00) must be furnished by the student; additional supplies will be provided.
Art I is a foundation course of study in the visual arts. Students will examine both natural and man-made objects, explore art elements and apply art principles in designing, developing and creating original art works. Students will study the art works of contemporary and past artists and that of fellow students to grow in the appreciation of art culture and heritage and to develop visual discrimination and evaluative skills in applying aesthetic judgments. Students are responsible for the cost of materials used in products they take home. Sketchbook assignments are required.

In this hands-on course students will learn the basic principles of art techniques and how to apply them. Students will express their thoughts creatively in a variety of art mediums. There is an emphasis on improving drawing skills. Grades are based on participation and self-improvement.
