The AP Studio Art Program supports students in becoming inventive artistic scholars who contribute to visual culture through art-making.
The AP Art and Design program consists of three different courses and AP Portfolio Exams—AP 2-D Art and Design, AP 3-D Art and Design, and AP Drawing—corresponding to college and university foundation courses. Students may choose to submit any or all of the AP Portfolio Exams. Students create a portfolio of work to demonstrate inquiry through art and design and the development of materials, processes, and ideas over the course of a year. Portfolios include works of art and design, process documentation, and written information about the work presented. In May, students submit portfolios for evaluation based on specific criteria, which include skillful synthesis of materials, processes, and ideas and sustained investigation through practice, experimentation, and revision, guided by questions.

Caileigh Barnett
There are many variations of color blindness and there is nothing that can perfectly show the comparison from normal to color-blind vision.
Though there are tools to be able to see the differences more closely. My sustained investigation focused on red/green color blindness.
Emma Dooley
Emma’s art includes both 2D and 3D work
My sustained investigation is a physical representation depicting the downward spiral of my grandmother’s mental health and the decline of her bodily health after experiencing a stroke and becoming paralyzed.
My sustained investigation centers on the emotional stages endured by teenagers while undergoing quarantine. For many, including myself, this event was the first significant life-altering situation experienced in our beginning stages of adolescence.

This series of works follows a man’s emotional journey and is supposed to act as scene pieces from the novel I wrote.
Each piece marks an integral point at which the focus and main character experiences something that alters the way he thinks and feels. Through variations in textures of paint, color shifts, or value changes, the way the main character’s painted and his surrounding environments represent what’s going on inside his head.
