Description

A foundation studio course exploring drawing with emphasis on descriptive, expressive, and conceptual approaches. Students will learn to see and interpret a variety of subjects while using diverse materials and techniques. Course work will facilitate a dialogue in which students will engage in critical analysis and begin to develop their understanding of drawing as a discipline.

Upon successful completion, students will be able to: describe visual subjects through the use of accurate and sensitive observation; generate drawings that demonstrate descriptive, expressive, and conceptual approaches; utilize varied materials and techniques with informed aesthetic and conceptual strategies; demonstrate an appropriate level of professional practice, including safety, craft and presentation; analyze and critique drawings verbally and/or in writing; and relate drawing to design, art history, and contemporary artistic production.
