Art Studio II/III is a continuation of Art Studio I. Students continue to work in various media and build their technical skills, however they are also asked to begin thinking about the subject matter of their artwork. Each year, the students work under a particular theme given by the instructor, and they work to communicate their own personal experiences within that theme. Here are examples of some of the projects done in Art Studio II/III.
