Art 3 - Pre AP

Art 3 Painting & Drawing and Art 3 Sculpture provide the more serious art student with the opportunity to produce art that reflects their prior knowledge and emphasizes a higher level of sophistication of the production, projects, and skills required in previous coursesIt is an advanced course in which students will be building on the knowledge gained in Art 1 and 2.  Students will continue to refine technical skills in a variety of media and deepen their understanding of art themes and concepts. In addition they will  learn to develop quality and mastery in their work and concepts through research, experimentation, proper composition through the use of the Elements of Art and Principles of Design, as well as proper construction techniques.  Students will strive to develop their own personal style.  The course will address a variety of approaches to planning, creating and critiquing artworks. Thinking and articulating personal ideas both in writing and in verbal critique/ discussions with the teacher, peers, and other groups is a part of this class. 

Students enrolled must show a high level of motivation, independence, and ability to work on their own, both in and outside of class. Expanding one’s knowledge of artists and art history will be demonstrated during the year.
