Students take art by storm Art classes consisted of Art I, Ceramics, Drawing and Design, Art II, Painting, Ceramics II, and Jewelry making. In the Art classes, the students learned a wide variety of skills involving color mixing, shading and shadowing, working with paints, and working with ceramics. When asked what she liked best about Art, sophomore Kim Lyons replied, I liked the chance it gave me to be creative. In Ceramics, students learned to use the coil method, pinch method, and the slab method. Students also learned the technique of glazing. In Ceramics II, students learned a more advanced way to work with clay, and some techniques of sculpting. They learned methods using the potter's wheel and how to calculate the different kinds of glazes. In Drawing and Design, the students learned different skills with pencil, chalk, charcoal, and paints. Students who took Jewelry Making learned how to solder and cast jewelry using different techniques. In the painting activities, the students learned how to use a variety of different paints such as oils, water, and acrylics. The Art II class offered a choice of projects dealing in any of the fields of Art taught. Unlike the other classes though, they had to research their product and draw designs of it.
