Welcome to Art I

Prerequisite: none
Grades: 9-12
Art I is a prerequisite for all other art courses in senior high school. Students examine natural and man-made objects, explore the art elements of line, value, texture, color, form, and space. Students apply the principles of art in developing and creating original artworks using a variety of media and techniques in a general, structured, step-by-step manner. Artworks of master artists as well as fellow students are studied to allow students to grow in the appreciation of art and develop evaluation skills.
