Art I-A
Art I-A is a fundamentals class that deals primarily with the development of specific drawing skills and techniques.  While this class was designed with the beginner in mind, the advanced student will also find new challenges and areas of interest.  Art I-A, in addition to Art I-B, is a prerequisite for Art II, Advanced Drawing, Ceramics, and Sculpture.  

Art 1-B
Art I-B is a fundamentals class that deals primarily with the basic manipulation of clay and pottery, color and paint.  Here students will discover many new skills that are usually not covered in pre-secondary art education programs.  Art I-B is a prerequisite for Art II, Advanced Drawing, Ceramics, and Sculpture.  
Art II: Two Dimensional Design and Painting 
Art II is an advanced course that provides a strong emphasis in the areas of two-dimensional design, painting and computer graphics. This course seeks to increase artistic ability through the creative manipulation of the elements and principles of art. Here students will also receive a detailed series of tutorials on how to handle various artistic mediums and subject matter, including photography, comics, and animation.  

Ceramics
Ceramics is an advanced class that deals exclusively with the production of art pottery and greatly expands on the information learned in Art I-B.  Here students will receive a better understanding of advanced ceramic techniques ranging from Native American craft to the Japanese art of Raku and everything in between.
