Students will view and discuss historical and contemporary pieces of sculpture and will gain an understanding and appreciation of these forms. Length of course is 1 semester. |
|
| NOTE: Intermediate sculpture is an extension of Beginning Sculpture, exploring and applying, on a more sophisticated level, skills and techniques learned during the first semester. Both levels function during the same class period, however; the basics of beginning sculpture must be completed successfully before a student can go on to the intermediate level. |
