Starting point #1

Great things are not done by impluse but by a series of small steps brought together. Vincent Van Gogh

//"Art is the window to man's soul. Without it, he would never be able to see beyond his world,// //nor could the world see the man within."// //Lady Bird Johnson//

**Studio Art** The arts are a visual record of what and who we are, our cultural heritage, and a dynamic means of self expression. Students will be exposed to artists, styles, and art history which directly relate to specific projects.

They will have an opportunity to explore a variety of media while applying design fundamentals to problem solving projects. Art, like any other subject, has many skills that can be learned. Many of our most successful students are those who open themselves to new methods and experiences and then work hard to improve. The potential to excel is there for everyone.

**Expectations** All students will - -participate and complete assigned projects on time. -be responsible for their behavior and care of materials. -utilize skills learned in math and language arts -be cooperative and respectful -strive to do their best
