High School Art

​

• Draw/Paint I is offered at the high school level. 

• Draw / Paint I meets five days a week.

OUR FOCUS:

​

 Draw/Paint I is designed to be a foundation for advanced art courses.

​

Understanding Elements of Art and Principles of Art is emphasized as a basis for composition of projects.

 

Drawing, painting, two- and three-dimensional design are some of the areas the student will explore as well as learning about art throughout history.

​

A willingness to create, rather than talent or previous experience, is the most important requirement of this course.

​

Draw/Paint I satisfies the Fine Arts requirement for graduation.
