Ap Studio Art Summer Assignment
Ap Studio Art Summer Assignment
Summer Assignment
Introduction: Your summer assignment is designed to help you review and sharpen your artistic
skills. These skills will be needed to successfully complete your AP Exam. AP Exam Judges prefer to
see artwork inspired from/made from real life…in other words: DRAW WHAT YOU SEE
Materials: You will need the following materials to complete your Summer Assignment.
Directions: For your Summer Assignment you need to read (and draw) through pages 1-57 (Projects
1-10) of your textbook. You should draw as you read. Your sketchbook should show evidence of
practice, progress, and MASTRY of each technical drawing project. As you work, clearly label
the Project number in the bottom corner of the sketchbook paper. Some projects may only fill
1 page, others may fill multiple. DO NOT PUT MORE THAN ONE PROJECT ON THE SAME PAGE.
Sketchbooks will be evaluated on the evidence of mastery of each Project skill. Each project is
worth 10 Points. 10x10 = 100 points total. To be included in Q1.
Students should photograph each completed page from their sketchbook. Photographs of each
drawing Project will be submitted on Canvas. (Please note: IF Canvas is not available, please email
your work directly to [email protected]) Sketchbooks should also be brought to school with you
on the 1st day of class.
Extra Practice
If you are interested in furthering your study/review of drawing this summer, I encourage you to
continue through the textbook. Lessons 11-30 may be completed for extra practice. These
additional lessons will guide you through some of the most common drawing subjects and other
artistic mediums.
