This is an activity based course. Experience the elements and principles of design through a variety of art media (printmaking, crayons, paint, fabric, garbage, etc.). Explore art history, interior and fashion design, as well as your own personal creative style.

Learning will be assessed in a variety of methods: comparisons to scoring rubrics and models, traditional quizzes, demonstrations of ability to apply knowledge, projects, teacher observations/evaluations and peer evaluations.

Discover and explore your own artistic potential. Improve your drawing skills. Develop and design project ideas. Explore the use of pencil, charcoal, colored pastels, and ink to develop your own artistic style. Arrange a portfolio for future use, and prepare your artwork for display.

Students are assessed by evaluations, individual and or group critiques.
