Art History
Instructor: Jennifer McIntyre
Description: This is a 2 semester class using the textbook Short Lessons in Art History by Phyllis Clausen Barker. (I have a few used copies I can sell for $10) There will be weekly assignments from the textbook with minimal reading and then answering questions that will be further discussed in class. Each student will be responsible for researching online and printing out examples for each artist that we study every week. In class we will work on projects that will include Color Theory and Drawing. There will be a handful of “lapbooks” to complete that will cover art vocabulary and Art History time periods. The textbook will need to be purchased along with a three ring binder for handouts and a set of drawing pencils, erasers and drawing pad. Paint supplies are included in the cost of the class.
