ReplyDelete-Ordered all 3 textbooks online today.
-Took Visual Foundation I with Mr. Hanel last year, and taking AP Studio Art Drawing this year.
-I hope to learn different styles of art to help me create my own styles of art, and use what I will learn in this class for my AP studio art class. Overall, I am hoping to learn different backgrounds and history of art.

ReplyDeleteI've got 2 out of 3 books
I've taken Digital Media 1 & 2 with Greider and taking 3 this upcoming year
I want to be able to look at things differently and not just say "oh look...it's a building/painting...well that's pretty" I also just love art history.

ReplyDeleteTrying to borrow the books from a friend. If I can't get borrow them, I will buy them.

ReplyDeleteI'm picking up books from a student last year
3 years of visual with Mr Hanel and Digital 1
I want to be that old lady at museums who spits out facts when you're looking at a piece of art, and to know why specific styles are used and how they came to be.

No recent experience with art, but I used to make sculptures and sketch as a hobby in middle school.
I wish to learn the formal way to look at and analyze art as well as the techniques that artists use to create art, since I have no training in this regard. I am also interested in history, so I want to learn how it has affected art. In addition, I just want to gain more exposure to the artists and art movements that are out there.

I have taken Digital Media 1 and 2, I was a visual minor in middle school from 6th-8th grade, and I also took Photography last year.
I hope to learn about how art was a reflection of certain cultures and society. I also want to learn about different techniques artist used and how they evolved as time progresses. I also hope that this will broaden me as an artist and give me a new perspective of how I perceive art.

ReplyDeleteJust ordered them online today
Visual minor in middle school and Digital Media 1 last year
I would like to learn about the history of art, I went on the New York trip this year in the fall and was absolutely fascinated. I'm so excited to be able to look at all forms of art in a new light

-Heather Mikles
ReplyDelete-Ordered "How to look at Paintings" a few days ago
picking up the other two from Caroline Colino tomorrow
-I am quite the master at paint by numbers, other than that, I know the very brief descriptions of the art movements that Winnington reviewed for Ap Euro
-I just like art man. It's emotional and reflects cultures and stories and it would be real neat to learn about that and the reason for different movements and stories behind famous art.

I have not taken an art class since middle school.
I would like to be immersed in art again. I do not like that Charter does not have any art requirements. Additionally, I would like to learn about the artists themselves, as well as the different movements and styles.
