Meade High – Honors Apex Arts Visual Arts/Portfolio Development 2

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

Designed to expand students’ analysis skills through examination of a body of work created through creative problem solving that involves personal aesthetic choices and variety of media. Adding to their portfolio, students will learn to value their work and examine artistic relationships based on personal criteria and contemporary practices. Through oral and written critiques, students will articulate the aesthetic characteristics and meaning of personal, peer, and master artworks. Students will be able to determine what they are trying to get from a work of art and what they are trying to communicate through a work of art and express their analysis in artist’s statements and peer critiques. This course is available only at Annapolis High School during the spring semester of the freshman year.
