Prerequisite: This art class is for students who have taken a previous art class. Students in this class should have a basic knowledge of the elements and principles behind art. Although we will have a refresher on some of these subjects.

Students in this class will be given more freedom and creative control over their projects. Once the lesson, or information is given, students will plan out their project.

We will use different art mediums, including (but not limited to) pencil, acrylic paints, watercolor paints, carving and print making materials, clay, and more!

There will also be an art show at the end of the year to showcase their hard work and creativity!!

This class will earn 1 Fine Arts Credit for the High School Transcript.

There is little homework for this class, but on occasion they will be asked to research subject matter for certain projects, or use that time to plan their next project.

Each student will need a portfolio to keep their artwork safe. This will be kept in the classroom and sent home with your student at the end of the year with their artwork. (See link)

Please try to provide the 11 x 14 size. Sizes larger than this are hard to store.
