2D Art
Art 2D is an introductory course where students will explore basic drawing skills and techniques. Students will learn the Principles and Elements of Design and will incorporate this knowledge into the creation of drawings and paintings using a variety of media. This course is required if you wish to continue on the Art 2D track. This is a semester course.
Drawing or Painting are courses designed for students who want to continue to develop and enhance skills and techniques learned in Art 2D. They will be introduced to more challenging projects which will reinforce and expand the artistic skills taught in Art 2D. These are separate courses and are a year long.
Advanced Placement Art 2D & Advanced Placement Drawing are courses that are designed for the highly motivated student who plans to take art at the college level. Students may take only one AP Studio Art class per year. The work in an AP Art class requires significantly more commitment and accomplishment than the typical high school art program. Portfolios are completed using drawing, painting, photography, digital art, printmaking, etc. Each portfolio is divided into two sections, which require the student to show a fundamental competence and range of understanding in visual methods. This is a teacher recommended course.
