Welcome to art everyone! This is a class where students learn about the elements and principles of art. The elements and principles of art are the foundation for all concepts in art. This class challenges young minds through solving visual problems, strengthening cognitive thinking, and by encouraging students to express themselves through creative processes. Our students will be exposed to various artists, genres/styles, and art mediums. This class not only focuses on traditional art found in history and museums, but also the beautiful art that can be found all around us in our everyday lives. Mr. Morales
