drawing & painting 1 & 2
(1) This course builds upon the concepts and media techniques introduced in Introduction to Art and Design. Students will explore a variety of drawing and painting techniques, materials, and concepts as they advance their ability to think creatively and express themselves through purposeful art
making. Critique skills such as interpretation and analysis will be further developed.
Projects include landscape drawing, figure drawing, traditional painting, digital painting, visual journal and more. Media such as graphite, charcoal, color pencil, marker, ink, tempera, watercolor, acrylic, oil paint, chalk and oil pastel, Adobe Photoshop and found objects are used within the span of the semester. The student will add to their digital art portfolio previously developed.
(2) This course is an advanced course and a continuation of techniques and materials used in Drawing & Painting 1. Independent exploration of media, concepts, and techniques is encouraged
as students begin to focus on a concentration for their art portfolio. This course promotes the meaning of the visual as a personal, social and political means of communication and
expression. Purposeful meaning is conveyed as students create paintings which communicate a concentrated idea throughout their body of work. The student will add to their digital art
portfolio previously developed.
