At Clear Creek, art classes focus on combining the principles of design and elements of art with the interestes and feelings of the artist.
Learning about the elements of art and principles of design helps students better understand art they see in the world and enables them to create more visually exciting works of their own. We participate in a variety of art experiences including "looking and talking" about art , in-class critiques, games and activities. We learn a lot, and of course, we create a lot too!!
I hope that my classes provide a fun, educational and creative outlet for students. I love to hear from parents! If you need to contact me email me at: afrankli@mccsc.edu
