Description:

AP Drawing is designed to address a very broad interpretation of drawing issues and media. Light and shade, line quality, rendering of form, composition, surface manipulation, and illusion of depth are drawing issues that can be addressed through a variety of means, which could include painting, print making, or mixed media. Abstract and observational works may demonstrate drawing competence. The range of marks used to make drawings, the arrangement of those marks, and the materials used to make the marks are endless. In this course students are required to strike a balance between creative interpretations of teacher-guided drawing assignments and personal imagery while simultaneously developing a strong body of work that communicates a cohesive vision.
