Prerequisites: Art 2
Course available to: Juniors, and Seniors.
This course is intended to enhance student’s abilities in drawing and painting through experimentation in a variety of media. Students will be encouraged to develop their own personal creative vision, while working on refining their artistic skills through traditional studies.
Students’ experience will include some of the following: pencil, marker, pen and ink, chalk pastels, oil pastels, charcoals, scratchboards, watercolors, acrylics, tempera, and mixed media. The class setting is similar to an art college studio class. All advanced art students are welcome! It is recommended to take Drawing & Painting, along with Advanced Drawing & Painting prior to enrolling in AP Studio.
