WELCOME BACK,
ADVANCED ART 1 STUDENTS!
The Advanced Art 1 Honors/CP level is intended for the academically and creatively motivated student and is designed to provide further development in the visual arts. This course will continue to provide opportunities to experience a broad variety of art media, materials, tools and techniques. The student will understand, synthesize and use with confidence the elements and principles of design to create increasingly sophisticated works of art. Building upon and refining their prior knowledge, the students will further explore compositional arrangements, color theory, drawing, painting, design and sculptural skills and incorporate art related technology. They will develop a sophisticated and mature level of problem solving, critical thinking and decision-making skills. Students will continue to gain an appreciation for art and artists from other cultures both past and present. This course, emphasizing art production will continue to engage students in art appreciation, art criticism and aesthetics. In addition to studio work, galleries, museums and/or artists' studios will be utilized as an extension of the classroom. The use of a sketchbook to demonstrate a process portfolio is required.
Upon successful completion, students will have proficient knowledge and skills to create, appreciate, assess and relate art to their everyday lives. This continued art study is proving valuable to all students applying to colleges as part of a well-rounded education.
