• Welcome to Art 1!

     Please use the tabs in the left hand colummn to find lesson plans, the course syllabus, and resources. 

    I’m excited that you have chosen to take this class.  Art is found everywhere you look, from contemporary (current) clothing, architecture, and web designs all the way back to ancient cave paintings, tools, and sculptures.  In this class you will learn some of the techniques, uses, and reasons for different types of art and art objects.

    Art 1 is a course designed to build a strong foundation of design elements, design principles, making and creating, art history, and art criticism. Students will be exposed to art through reading about, writing about, and creating artworks. Students will work during class to create works of art in a wide range of media.
