— 2D Design for Illustrators

Catalog description

This design course introduces the fundamental components of two dimensional design and color theory to Illustration students. Concepts include line, shape, positive and negative space, texture, composition and color. Students learn to recognize and interpret design concepts from observation and to generate expressive ideas and images from their imaginations. Through class critiques and the application of these essential aspects of design, students establish the ability to analyze and constructively critize illustration imagery. They explore collage construction, traditional drawing and painting media, and learn to employ their own photographs as reference to fuilfill assignments.
