Black History/ Activist Art

In celebration of Black History Month students chose an Iconic African American figure to parallel their own identity with. Students investigated ways of symbolizing the similarities and differences of their icon to themselves. They explored varieties of media and overcame the struggle of the process of  experimentation. Students took ownership over their work and reflected upon their investigation of self and artistry through writing and critique. 

Architecture and Interior Design

Architects design buildings,this includes where windows will be located, how the light will be in each room,what size each room will be, how the building looks on the outside and the rooms will look inside.here are a few architect drawings

Interior Designers choose the furnishings, paint colors, art, and decorations to compliment the building and room spaces. Here are a few interior design drawings.

Space

In studying op art we have learned that through the precise use of line, shape, value, pattern, we can create an illusion of space.
