The second quarter will be busy for AP Art students. They will begin photographing work and creating their digital portfolios. They will conduct several in-class experiments in the Breadth catagory while continuing to work on their areas of concentration. For a high AP score students must show their versatility and skill in different media and materials as well as in different approaches to drawing. Please study the sample portfolios located on the AP website, read the student comments as well as the comments from the judges. These are very helpful.
The in-studio experiment this week will focus on multi media color compositions using watercolors and prismacolor pencils and stix. Compositions will be from "life" subjects - that is objects or subjects viewed in or around the studio. One study will be completed this week.
Students will need to work outside the studio class period to complete the number of works required by the AP (24). Please plan work time at home in the evenings and on weekends. To support your work the studio will be open from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm on the following dates. October 29, November 5 and 12, December 3. Please sign up if you plan to attend for part or all of the work session.
