Students are guided to explore thirteen major historical movements from the Renaissance (1400s) through contemporary Pop Art. They gain an understanding of each era's mindset, methods, and themes, to create their own personal works of art inspired by these explorations. The workbook is meant to be written in and becomes a journal and portfolio of personal exploration and study. Assessments, progress checks, and grading rubrics are contained, as well as supplemental information students will find helpful as they explore perspective, figure proportions, media expectations, and timelines.
