AP Studio Art: Drawing
This course guides students to complete a college-level portfolio consisting of 15 works of art related to a topic of investigation chosen by each student. Emphasis is placed on providing written and visual evidence of the process, planning and revision of the student work. By May of each year, students must complete a portfolio of 15 works suitable for AP submission (AP Drawing Portfolio). Students submitting a drawing portfolio will focus on showcasing the use of their chosen medium and strength in rendering light and shadow to convey form, as well as the ability to create the illusion of space and depth on a two-dimensional surface.
Additional Expectations: Work outside of course is required in order to complete the extensive portfolio requirements.
