PLANNED COURSE CURRICULUM GUIDE

ADVANCED MIXED MEDIAGRADE 10-12

I. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND INTENT:

This course is designed to strengthen skills and ideals learned in Art Perspectives and Art Explorations. Students will practice problem-solving and creative-thinking skills, while developing technical mastery. Students will investigate the art styles of an emerging Modern Europe beginning with the Renaissance. We will focus on some of its contributions, while generating their own artwork in drawings, painting, and printmaking.

Students will focus on learning the art of printmaking, using the flatbed press to duplicate your image or photograph. Traditional oil painting methods will be taught along with non-traditional ways of applying mixed mediums, that is, combining colored pencils, India ink, watercolor, and charcoal with printmaking to create layered images with more depth. Project ideas and concepts are based on individual student interests. Encaustic (hot wax) painting, silk painting and jewelry/wearable art are alternative projects.
