Drawing From Observation

Catalog description

The goal of this course is to explore the process of drawing as a way of seeing, investigating and experiencing. The student learns to use line, shape, value, texture, space, proportion and composition while striving for increased eye-hand coordination. The course places primary emphasis on depicting forms in space through the observational drawing of objects and self-portraits. While experimentation and imaginative problem-solving are important and essential aspects of the course, the main thrust of the course is analytical seeing and drawing while using a variety of black-and-white media.
