Art Overview

Art Overview


Elements and PrinciplesIn the art classroom, we have been exploring many new art discoveries. As Art Explorers have started the year off with a review of the art elements of line, shape, color, form, texture, value, and space. Throughout the year, art projects have offered the children an opportunity to apply each art element and build upon them.

The second part of the year we have continued our exploration of the art elements and have added a focus on the art principles. Art Principles include the use of pattern, movement, balance, emphasis, unity, and movement. Students will be demonstrating their art knowledge in both 2D and 3D art forms.
