ARTS 12B OIL/ACRYLIC PAINTING: BEGIN II 3.0 Units Second level course in painting using oil or acrylic paints. With the skills and knowledge gained in ARTS 12A, students will apply the principles and elements of design, in addition to color theory, to their own paintings. Students will make intermediate level studies from observation, study works by the masters, and learn to express their own ideas through painting. Prerequisite: ARTS 12A with a minimum grade of C Recommended Course Preparation: ARTS 2A with a minimum grade of C ARTS 12C OIL/ACRYLIC PAINTING: ADV I 3.0 Units Advanced projects in oil or acrylic painting with an emphasis on individual creative work and development of personal ideas and style. Prerequisite: ARTS 12B with a minimum grade of C Recommended Course Preparation: ARTS 2A with a minimum grade of C ARTS 12D OIL/ACRYLIC PAINTING: ADV II 3.0 Units Advanced projects in oil or acrylic painting with emphasis on developing ideas, skills, and knowledge. Students hone their painting through practice and critique; this course requires self-direction. Prerequisite: ARTS 12C with a minimum grade of C Recommended Course Preparation: ARTS 2A with a minimum grade of C ARTS 23 2-D DESIGN 3.0 Units Introduction to the concepts, applications, and historical references related to 2-dimensional art and composition. Topics include the basic principles and elements of design. In this course, students will develop their visual vocabulary for creative visual expression through lectures and problemsolving studio projects. Students explore aspects of 2-D Design through visual art assignments. ARTS 24 3-D DESIGN 3.0 Units Introduction to the concepts, applications, and historical references related to 3- dimensional design and spatial composition, including the study of the elements and organizing principles of design as they apply to 3-dimensional space and form. Development of a visual vocabulary for creative expression through lecture presentations and use of appropriate materials for 3-dimensional studio projects. ARTS 26 COLOR THEORY 3.0 Units A basic-level course highlighting color as an element for communication and expression in all visual fields. Covers key color systems and their relevance to graphic and other visual arts and creative and technical aspects of color.
