Sculpture Overview
This course is an exploration of three dimensional art forms. Students will investigate a variety of sculptural processes and media while applying the Elements of Art and Principles of Design to their work. Students will develop an understanding of three dimensional art through the study of art history and culture, group discussion, and written critique. Advanced students will focus on developing a cohesive portfolio of work that explores personal symbols and artistic voice.
