ART: Studio Arts 12: Ceramics and Sculpture

       Recommended:  Art Foundations 11 or a Studio Arts 11      This course will build on the skills and techniques learned in previous sculpture classes, while tempting you with new projects, materials and perspectives.  The objective of this art course is to explore ideas through three-dimensional medias, with a greater emphasis on the development of personal themes, images and styles.  Although many specific themes, topics and techniques will be assigned, students will be expected to assert self-direction within their work. Your final portfolio will show depth in three-dimensional explorations and variety in the materials and themes.  Students will be expected to keep a visual journal, in order to focus on image development and explorations.  Portfolio development for post-secondary requirements, leading to career options in the arts, will also be supported.
