Description
This is an introductory course for the development of basic drawing skills and practices in various drawing materials. Students will explore drawing as a process of seeing, develop technical skills, and engage in the use of drawing media as materials for communication. Course assignments will acquaint students with the basic elements and principles of design. There will be a balance between learning the skills of rendering what is seen, the qualities of drawing such as mark making, and learning to draw what is imagined. Emphasis will be on discovering the "art" of drawing while perfecting the mechanics and skill of drawing.
