High School Intro to Visual Art II: Intro to Visual Arts II is a course that provides an introduction and builds upon art through a multimedia experience. In this course, High School students will learn and apply not only the elements of art but the principles of design (composition, unity, variety, emphasis, rhythm, balance and pattern) to produce 2D and 3D in-class and at-home creative assignments that reflect their understanding of these concepts. Students will receive homework and assessments to ensure their understanding of elements presented. Students will explore a variety of artists and pieces making connections to other disciplines and current events, while gaining understanding of the artists’ ideas and intentions. Various medium materials such as pencil pen and ink, watercolor, acrylic and clay will be explored. Willingness to get involved in the creative process is a more important requirement than the student’s talent or previous experience. New artists are welcome!
