Abstract
The purpose of this class is to introduce the beginning student to the materials, techniques and various approaches to the art of drawing. The course will emphasize the basic development of perceptual and conceptual awareness through an active investigation into drawing’s basic vocabulary of line, shape, space, value, texture and color. Students will explore various media including pencil, charcoal, conte crayons, ink, and colored pencils and markers. The course will use a variety of fairly open-ended problems and activities to expand the student’s visual awareness. Slide shows, videos, and field trips to museums will supplement classroom work and homework. Frequent short discussions and longer more formal critiques will be scheduled. A portfolio of drawings will be turned in at mid-term and finals week. We will have group critiques on alternating Mondays (every other Monday).
