Description:

An introduction to seeing specifically and drawing expressively. Students will increase their manual dexterity through the practice of observational drawing. Working from natural and manufactured objects, organic forms, and the nude human figure, students create the illusion of three-dimensional forms on the two-dimensional plane. Utilizing contour line, mass drawing, value, and diagrammatic drawing, students will explore realism and abstraction. Tools include graphite pencil, charcoal, conte crayon, ink, and brushes. This course includes drawing from the nude model, no exceptions will be considered. If this is a concern, consider the course D1: Measured Drawing, which does not have drawing from the nude model.
