Course Description
This intensive course will introduce you to fundamental principles of capturing, translating and synthesizing your visual perceptions through drawing, reproduction, graphic languages and related skills of perception. You will experience drawing as a primary means of working with thoughts, processes, gestures and experiences through a range of materials and media. The course provides creative strategies and methods for you to translate your thoughts and perceptions into artworks.
Objectives provide a foundation in drawing and mixed media that can be further articulated through individual projects. You will gain skills that generate artistic departure points which form the basis for development into more complex art works.
Learning in these courses will take place in a studio environment and will be designed to deepen your creative thinking and expand notions of making in response to visual and material associations.
