WELCOME TO

Mr. McInturff’s ART 1 CLASS

Grimsley High School 2019-2020

---WHAT IS ART 1 ALL ABOUT?---

Art I focuses on learning about and effectively using the seven Elements of Art: Line, Shape, Form, Value, Color, Space, and Texture.  This will provide you with a strong foundation to build on in the higher levels of art.  We will work with a variety of art media to cover the basic drawing, design, painting, and printmaking and mixed media techniques. You will also learn how to have a global mindset and how to infuse within your own ideas and artwork.
