IB Art is the most challenging and possibly most rewarding Art experience available at TCHS. Like all IB courses, it is much like a first year college art course earning college credits and a variety of other advantages for students who choose to undertake it. This course will introduce but not limit students to photography, graphic design, traditional drawing and painting as well as mixed media and other atypical expressive materials. Students will explore the art of a variety of cultures including the history of Western art and create new, original work from this exploration. Course outcomes will include the successful completion of a Visual Arts Journal, original studio work, and a portfolio limited to the student's strongest work.
Perhaps the work involved in IB Art is best described by Raymundo Delgadillo in the slide presentation shown below.
