The CourseThe course is divided into two competencies that can be interrelated, or touched on independently.
Creates personal and media images: Students explore ideas (themes), learn to transform gestures (use different techniques such as drawing, painting, printmaking, carving, assembling, etc.), make use of the properties of material (pencil, graphite, charcoal, pastels, paint, linoleum, plaster, etc.) to create personal images. Through this process they will learn the elements of visual arts language (colour, value, hues, line, form, negative space, etc.) When creating media images (images with a target audience) students will gain a better understanding of the creative process behind visual communication. They will learn to transmit messages through art. Appreciates images: Students will develop their critical judgment and the aesthetic awareness through examining images by artists throughout history and through sharing, and appreciating each other’s work. |
