This course utilizes 21st Century Skills and the elements of art to create artwork that explore areas of personal communication and visual literacy. Design choices and visual problem solving are goals supported through a variety of materials that could include paint, graphite, chalk, ink, wire, wood and clay to allow for student choice and decision making.
Interested in drawing, painting, sculpting and creating 2-Dimensional and 3-Dimensional artwork? This course utilizes 21st Century Skills and will build on the skills students learned in 6th grade Art. Students will have the opportunity to utilize various art tools, materials, techniques, and processes through exposure to and experimentation with different art materials. Students will also use the artistic process to evaluate and improve their artwork while responding to artwork from other artists and cultures. Some art projects may be self-directed, fueled by the students’ own interests with research in art history, cultures, and contemporary art. Students are encouraged to express themselves in their own individual, honest, unique and creative way.
