Art Foundations 11 Ms. D. Kuehn Southern Okanagan Secondary School, Oliver, B.C. Canada |
Art Foundations 11 allows students to continue with art in a senior environment. Students will develop in all areas of artistic expression, two-dimensional and three-dimensional, while completing the prescribed learning outcomes. Students will begin to specialize in image development. This course is worth four credits, is a full semester, and is considered a senior level fine arts selected study course. It is expected that students are prepared to work towards the credit awarded, coming to
class with an open mind and a personal motivation to work, whether written or practical. Personal style will become more pronounced when students come to class with a positive attitude and the desire to try new art techniques and media without fear. (http://www.bced.gov.bc.ca/irp/va1112_afsa.pdf)
