Abstract
The purpose of this class is to continue to pursue the materials, techniques and various approaches to the art of drawing. The course will demand self motivation and a deep personal commitment to the development of individual perceptual and conceptual awareness, through an active investigation into drawing’s vocabulary of line, shape, space, value, texture and color. Students will explore various techniques (image transfer, xerography, linocut, rubbing, power belt sanding the image), and media (dry, wet, mixed, color, found). The course will use a variety of fairly open-ended problems and activities to expand the student’s visual awareness. Slides, videos, and field trips will supplement classroom work and homework. Frequent short discussions and longer more formal critiques will be scheduled. Students are required to participate in all group critiques. A portfolio of drawings will be turned in at mid-term and finals week.
