Drawing I

3 Credits · Level: Undergraduate

This course will cover the fundamental and technical aspects of drawing. All levels of experience are welcome. Faculty will work with each student individually to ensure growth and improvement. Students will be introduced to a variety of tools, techniques and materials used in drawing - with the goal of teaching anyone to draw from direct observation. Exploration, interpretation, and experimentation are encouraged! We will begin the course working directly from still life and then move to more complex projects (figure, portrait) as the semester continues. Students will build a drawing vocabulary and examine a variety of drawing philosophies that will transcend this course and assist them with the entire experience of making any type of art. This course is not available to audit.
