Portfolio Honors
This course is intended for the seriously committed art student capable of independent work. Students who enroll in this course will be completing the coursework similar to that which would be required of them in college courses, and therefore will earn a weighted grade for this course. Half of the studio work will be completed outside of class as homework. Students develop portfolios suitable for college presentation. In Portfolio Honors, students will pursue a deeper study of one particular medium to which they have already been introduced in a previous art class. (i.e. a student who has already taken painting who continue to use paint as a medium in the Senior Art elective.) Each quarter has a different emphasis designed to bring the student beyond the basics to producing his/her unique, complex compositions.
