2D III HonorsThis is an Honors-Level course. You will be expected to create a portfolio of work through out the year and if possible, build your breadth pieces for AP Studio Art for next school year. You will begin to create a cohesive body of work, and pieces that push past the traditional 2D assignments from 2D I/II. There is more autonomy and personal responsibility built into this course. CURRICULUM GUIDE DESCRIPTION Students demonstrate proficiency in the conceptual development of content in drawing, painting, printmaking, collage, and/or design to create self‐directed or collaborative 2‐D artwork suitable for inclusion in a portfolio. Students produce works that show evidence of developing craftsmanship and quality in the composition. Through the critique process, students evaluate and respond to their own work and that of their peers. Through a focused investigation of traditional techniques, historical and cultural models, and individual expressive goals, students begin to develop a personal art style. This course incorporates hands‐on activities and consumption of art materials. WHAT WILL YOU LEARN? You will learn about manipulating media, responding to the world around you, and the creative process from beginning to end. |
AP STUDIO ARTDISCLAIMER
This is a college-level class. It is up to you to be responsible for completing work on time and communicating with me (Mrs. Pla) about any issues well beforehand. Being that this is a college-level course, you may be exposed to nudity and other college-level subject matter. I expect everyone to come in with a mature attitude and strong work-ethic. You will be expected to create a body of at least 24 pieces of work this school year. It's a lot of work, but if you are diligent, you will pass the exam and learn a lot about yourself and your peers. This class can be one of the most rewarding experiences of your high school career, but you get out of it what you put in. COURSE GUIDE DESCRIPTION The AP Program offers three studio art courses and portfolios: Two‐Dimensional Design, Three‐Dimensional Design, and Drawing. The AP Studio Art portfolios are designed for students who are seriously interested in the practical experience of art. Students submit portfolios for evaluation at the end of the school year. The AP Studio Art Program consists of three portfolios — 2‐D Design, 3‐D Design and Drawing — corresponding to the most common college foundation courses. Students may choose to submit any or all of the Drawing, Two‐Dimensional Design, or Three‐Dimensional design portfolios. AP Studio Art students create a portfolio of work to demonstrate the artistic skills and ideas they have developed, refined, and applied over the course of the year to produce visual compositions. |
