Studio Art



This certificate prepares students as creative artists with instruction in the traditional fine arts media (drawing, painting, sculpture) as well as art historical and studio art elective courses. Students will explore principles of design, color, and composition to create engaging visual art projects, which can be displayed in a portfolio of work to access educational and career opportunities.

Students who complete the Studio Art certificate can apply those courses to CCV’s Design & Media Studies (A.A.) +  program.
