Art 2
Course Description
Art 2 expands the student’s knowledge of the arts and goes more in depth into the mediums and techniques introduced in Art 1. Students are exposed to more drawing and painting exercises as well as block printing, and pen/ink, scratchboards, and mixed media work. They will be encouraged to experiment and push themselves to expand their creative potential, enhance their art skills and start to develop their own style. Throughout the year students will be working on a portfolio of artwork. By the end of the year, students will have produced a portfolio that can be used for AP studio art or college applications.
