Visual Art
Welcome to
Sculpture
Learning about Visual Art is your path to
becoming a creative and innovative problem solver that demonstrate s proficient use of the principals and elements of art and design. Personal connections to your personal artwork will help you define your role in contemporary visual culture. Wait! There’s more! You will also : Read, Write, Analyze, Interpret, Compare and Contrast…and then, you will also make some pretty pictures. Expect to be busy! Expect to do more than draw and mix paint! Hard work and a willingness to learn and grow (as an artist and an individual)… these are MY expectations for all students. What are YOUR expectations of me? me with suggestions (or questions)!
Teamwork makes the dream work!

How 2 Succeed in Art
-Good Attendance-
-Engaged Participation- These are your top priority for best results. Due to the nature of the course, all demonstrations, direct access to supplies and peer feedback for preliminary revisions are “in class” experiences and events, and often cannot be duplicated.
Poor attendance and/or lack of participation in class will have negative results on your final grade.
-FYI -
The Fine Arts program at HPHS follows a county-wide system for calculating grades and weights (50/20/30%)
