Prerequisite: Semesters taken in sequence.
Art I allows the student the opportunity to learn how to work with a large
variety of materials. The first semester of Art I will introduce the student
to drawing and color study using the elements and principles of design.
Drawing will consist of sequential learning steps with emphasis on developing
shading skills. Color studies will include but not be restricted to using
waterbase paint. The second semester, which builds on first semester skills,
will include the study of painting, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics,
and fibers (optional). Printmaking will involve relief printing; sculpture
will include additive construction; ceramics will consist of hand building
methods of pinch, coil, and slab; fibers might consist of basic weaving
or other techniques. Computer manipulated works are incorporated into
