1 Course Name: AP Studio Art Department: Art Grade(s): 12 (11 with permission) Level(s): AP, Honors Course Number(s): Credits: 1 Course Description: Wethersfield Public Schools Course Outline Art instruction in Grades 1-12 promotes the development of creativity, artistic literacy, critical thinking skills, and lifelong learning. In art classes students develop critical 21 st Century Skills of creativity and innovation, critical thinking and problem solving, and communication and collaboration. The curriculum and instruction address the National Art Standards and the Connecticut State Department of Education Visual Arts Standards. Curriculum and instruction spiral from grade to grade building and expanding upon learning the previous year. Through this spiraling curriculum and instruction, students attain the Wethersfield Art Department s Enduring Understandings: Materials, process, and environment complement each other. Artists use elements and principles of design to organize visual communication. Artistic progress is often characterized by cycles of experimentation. Art embodies the inner quest for self-knowledge and reflects relationships between humans and nature. Art can be used to record what one sees as well as what one feels. Artists of different cultures express meaning and ideas in different ways. Art reflects the time period, culture, geography, and status of a region s inhabitants. The process of reflection enables one to understand and appreciate art. Art is a distinct form of communication that enriches the understanding of other disciplines. Art is an inherent and integral part of our environment. Advanced Placement Art follows the College Board s curriculum. Students will complete their portfolio, demonstrating quality (excellence in original works), concentration (in-depth, thematic and personal commitment to a particular artistic concern) and breath (variety of artistic experience). The course culminates with a senior art exhibition. This course prepares you to take the AP test in May and students are strongly encouraged to do so. Prerequisite: Art 1 - Art 3 and instructor approval.

11 Glossary: Abstract: art that looks as if it contains little or no recognizable or realistic forms from the physical world. Focus is on formal elements such as colors, lines, or shapes. Artists often "abstract" objects by changing, simplifying, or exaggerating what they see. Actual Line: an actual mark derived from an initial point or dot, which is extended in any direction and can be created numerous mediums. Aerial perspective: refers to creating a sense of depth in painting by imitating the way the atmosphere makes distant objects appear less distinct and more bluish than they would be if nearby. Also known as atmospheric perspective. Aesthetics: theory of the artistic or the "beautiful"; traditionally a branch of philosophy, but now a compound of the philosophy, psychology, and sociology of art. Analogous colors: any set of three or five colors that are closely related in hue(s). They are usually adjacent (next) to each other on the color wheel. Approximate symmetry: use of forms which are similar on either side of a central axis. They may give a feeling of the exactness or equal relationship but are sufficiently varied to prevent visual monotony. Asymmetry: type of balance in which the parts are unequal in size, shape, etc., but still produce a balanced visual effect. Background: things that seem the most distant, as if at the back of the picture. Balance: feeling of equality in weight, attention, or attraction of the various elements within a composition as a means of accomplishing unity. A principle of design. A feeling of balance results when the elements of design are arranged to create the impression of equality in weight or importance. Birds-eye view: seeing from a point of view from an altitude or from a distance; a comprehensive view in a downward direction; also called an "aerial view". Brushstroke: mark left by a loaded (filled) brush on a surface. Brushstrokes can be distinguished by their direction, thickness, TEXTURE, and quality. Some artists purposefully obscure individual brushstrokes to achieve a smooth surface. Other artists make their brushstrokes obvious to reveal the process of painting or to express movement or emotion. Chiaroscuro: using a combination of light (chiaro) and dark, or shade Collage: introduced by the Cubists, the technique of creating a work of art by adhering flat articles such as paper, fabrics, string or other materials to a flat surface such as a canvas whereby a threedimensional result is achieved. A form of art in which a variety of materials (e.g., photographs, fabric, objects) are glued to a flat background. Color: visual attribute of things that results from the light they emit or transmit or reflect; the visual response to the wavelengths of light, identified as red, blue, green, etc.; primary and secondary colors; warm, cool, and neutral colors, color value; hue; and intensity. Color wheel: round diagram that shows the placement of colors in relationship to each other. It is from the color wheel that color schemes are defined. Complementary colors: Colors which appear opposite one another on a color wheel. When placed next to one another, complementary colors are intensified and often appear to vibrate. Composition: the arrangement of the elements of art and the principles of design within the design area; the ordering of visual and emotional experience to give unity and consistency to a work of art and to allow the observer to comprehend its meaning. Contrast: difference between elements or the opposition to various elements. Cool Colors: colors whose relative visual temperatures make them seem cool. Cool colors generally include green, blue-green, blue, blue-violet, and violet. Contour Line: actual line of varying thickness that may be applied along, as well as within, the outer edges of a shape to suggest a three dimensional quality. Craftsmanship: aptitude, skill, or manual dexterity in the use of tools and materials. Neatness. Critique: the process and the results of critical thinking about art. The parts are: describe, analyze, AP Studio Art Page 11
12 interpret, and judge. Cropping: cutting out of extraneous parts of an image, usually a photograph; excluding part of a photo or illustration to show only the portion desired or to fit a given space requirement. Depth: the look of space or distance Depth of field: in photography, the area in front of and behind the focused point that is sharp. A shallow depth of field is used in portraits to provide a soft backdrop, whilst a greater depth of field is useful for landscapes to ensure everything from the foreground to the background is in focus. Shorter (wide angle) lenses and smaller apertures increase depth of field. Dominance: emphasis placed on a particular area or characteristic of a work, with other areas or aspects given subordinate or supporting roles. Elements Of Art: those qualities of a composition that can be seen and worked with independently of its figurative content. They include line, form, value, texture, color, and shape. Emphasis: the stress placed on a single area of a work or a unifying visual theme. A principle of design. Emphasis may be defined as the special attention or importance given to one part or element in an art work. Emphasis can be achieved through placement, contrast, size, etc. Figure Ground: A spatial designation used to describe the positive - negative relationship and juxtaposition of shapes within a composition. Figure relates to dominant shapes and ground relates to negative shapes. Spatially the figure usually takes the forward position. Fixative: a liquid, similar to varnish, which is usually sprayed over a finished piece of artwork to better preserve it and prevent smudging. Artwork media requiring fixative include drawings done in pencil, charcoal, and pastel. Focal point: a specific area, element or principle that dominates a work of art; the area in a work which the eye is most compellingly drawn. The viewer's eye is usually drawn there first. Form: the volume and shape of a three-dimensional work, perhaps including unfilled areas that are integral to the work as a whole. Formal Analysis: the analysis of a work of art according to the elements and principles of design, without the inclusion of contextual information. Foreshortening: A form of perspective where the nearest parts of an object or form are enlarged so that the rest of the form appears to go back in space; To shorten an object to make it look as if it extends backwards into space. Gesture Drawing: A spontaneous representation of the dominant physical and expressive attitudes of an object. Gesso: A mixture of plaster, chalk, or gypsum bound together with a glue which is applied as a ground or coating to surfaces in order to give them the correct properties to receive paint. Gesso can also be built up or molded into relief designs, or carved. Glaze: a thin layer of translucent acrylic or oil paint applied to all or part of a painting, to modify the tone or color underneath. Glazing is the process of using this technique. Grayscale: refers to the range of gray tones between black and white. Harmony: the unity of all the visual elements of a composition achieved by the repetition of the same characteristics or those which are similar in nature. Highlight: portion of an object that receives the greatest amount of direct light. Line: an actual mark derived from an initial point or dot which is extended in any direction and can be created numerous mediums. Length is the dominant factor in determining line from shape. Lines can exist psychologically through closure of shapes, visual or directional lines of sight, or as perceived edges of shapes created through contrasts of color, value, or texture. Linear Perspective: a system for creating the illusion of depth on a two-dimensional surface. The system is based on a scientifically or mathematically derived series of actual or implied lines that intersect at a vanishing point on the horizon. Linear perspective determines the relative size of objects from the foreground of an AP Studio Art Page 12
13 image to the background. Monochromatic: color scheme in which only one hue is used, along with its tints (i.e., hue plus white) and shades (i.e., hue plus black). Movement: a principle of design. Movement is the way in which the elements of design are organized so that the viewer's eye is led through the work of art in a systematic way. Negative space. The void or open areas around an object or form. Negative Shape, Space: shape, space, or area that is not considered to be a positive shape. The areas, however, are very important components in creating a unified composition. Non Objective: a category of art that has no recognizable subject. Opaque: something that cannot be seen through - the opposite of transparent. Pattern: highly repetitive motif. The degree of systematic repetition of the motif determines the purity of the pattern and type of rhythm. Perspective: a technique for creating the illusion of depth on a two-dimensional surface. There are three types of perspective: - linear perspective, which involves the use of parallel lines that appear to converge as their distance from the viewer increases; - diminishing perspective, in which objects appear to diminish in size as their distance from the viewer increases; - atmospheric perspective, which is produced by the gradual lessening of the intensity of color and the reducing of detail as the distance between an object and the viewer increases. Picture Plane: actual flat surface on which the artist creates a picture. Positive Space, Shape: shapes or forms on a two-dimensional surface. Principles Of Design: Principles or guidelines used by artists to organize the visual elements of an art work. They include balance, emphasis, rhythm, unity, movement, variety, harmony, and proportion. Primary colors. Colors that cannot be created by mixing other colors, but that can be mixed to produce all the other colors (red, yellow, and blue). Proportion: may be described as the relationship between objects with respect to size, number, etc. Proximity: Establishes unity through grouping or closeness of objects in a composition. Representational: images and objects with subject matter that contains recognizable images from real life. Repetition: establishes harmony and unity through similarity and number of related elements. Radial Balance: type of balance that occurs when shapes or lines radiate outward from a central core. Compositions can have radial symmetry or asymmetry depending on the orientation. Rhythm: continuance, a flow, or a feeling of movement achieved by repetition of regulated visual units, the use of measure accents, directs the eye through a composition. Scale: term of comparison in which an object of a standard or normal size is contrasted to the same object, in correct proportion, but either smaller or larger. Thus the phrases large scale or small scale. In compositions, sometimes the size of an object is compared to the environment as a whole. For example, a small figure in a large space might be referred to as small scale in reference to the surrounding area. Secondary Colors: green, purple, and orange. These three colors are derived from mixing equal amounts of two of the three primary colors. Shade: a color produced by adding black to a pigment. Shading: showing change from light to dark or dark to light in a picture by darkening areas that would be shadowed and leaving other areas light. Shading is often used to produce illusions of dimension and depth. Shape: an area which stands out from the space next to it or around it because of a defined boundary or because of a difference of value, color, or texture. Simplicity: the understanding of what is and is not important in a design. Details that do not have a major impact to the design are omitted to keep it uncluttered. Sketch: a rough drawing used to capture the basic elements and structure of a situation often used as the basis for a more detailed work. Space: the interval or measurable distance between pre-established points. Space. An element of design. Space is the area around, within, or between images or elements. Space can be created on a two-dimensional surface by using such techniques as overlapping of objects, varying of object size or placement, varying of color intensity and value, and use of detail and diagonal lines. AP Studio Art Page 13
14 Still life: a painting or other two-dimensional work of art representing inanimate objects such as bottles, fruit, and flowers. Also, the arrangement of these objects from which a drawing, painting, or other art work is made. Stippling: a drawing technique consisting of many small dots or flecks to construct the image; technique of using small dots to simulate varying degrees of solidity or shading; to paint, engrave, or draw by means of dots or small touches of the brush, pen, or other tool. Symmetrical Balance: the placing of identical forms to either side of the central axis of a work to stabilize it visually. A type of balance that has identical components on either side of an imaginary vertical axis. This balance is also referred to as formal balance. Texture: the tactile surface characteristics of a work of art that are either felt or perceived visually. Tertiary Colors: also called intermediate colors, these are blends of primary and secondary colors. The tertiary colors are named by combining the names of the two parent colors, with the primary element listed first: orange + red = red-orange. Three-Dimensional: occupying or giving the illusion of three dimensions (height, width, depth). Thumbnail Sketch: crude, small pencil drawings used to develop the initial concept for a design. Tint: a hue with white added. Pink is a tint of red. Two-Dimensional: having two dimensions (height and width); referring to something that is flat. Unity: a principle of design. Unity is the coherence of a work that gives the viewer the feeling that all the parts of the piece are working together. Under drawing: preliminary drawing that lies under the final painted or inked image. Value: lightness or darkness of a color. Vanishing Point: In perspective drawing, the point on the horizon line where the converging parallel lines appear to meet. Variety: provides visual interest via Contrast, Proportion and Scale, achieving variety involves the use of differences or contrasts. Viewfinder: a tool used to look through to compose an image. This tool is helpful in selecting the most interesting composition to be found in a larger image by cropping out unwanted perimeters. In photography a viewfinder is what the photographer looks through to compose, and in many cases to focus, the picture.
