ART 557: Ideas in Visual Art

Class Program
Credits 3

This course explores media and content within the parameters of the candidate's own artwork, using those explorations to make connections to the preK-1 visual art classroom.  Candidates will develop a practice for personal art making, participate in ongoing critiques of their work and the work of their peers and conduct and participate in medium workshops.  Two-dimensional and three-dimensional materials and methods are explored in the medium workshops with a focus on the creation of art that communicates ideas and self-expression through different materials that are accessible in preK-12 student environments, using processes appropriate for use with these ages.
