High Point offers a series of two dimensional courses that focus on the elements  and principles of art: Fine Arts 1,2,3 and 4. Fine  Arts 1 & 2 are introductory level classes designed for all students interested in art.  Fine Arts 3 & 4 are for the more serious art student who would like to develop a portfolio.

All classes work primarily 2-D and are focused creative problem, imagination, perserverence, divergent thinking skills, art appreciation, the elements of design, and how art is an integral part of our lives.

Work in these classes start in Fine Arts 1 with an introduction to art and the elements of design. Art History and appreciation are the cornerstone of the student experience.

Fine Arts 2 continues with a strong Art History component and builds on the elements of design learned in Fine Arts 1.  Students have an opportuntiy to work more independently and are given more challenging work.

Fine Arts 3  begins  work on  a portfolio for submission to colleges.  This class explores each students own style and refines important art skills.

Fine Arts 4  is the final and most challenging of the Fine Arts series.  Students create their own exhibit of art and create an amazing portfolio of art for presentation.
