Drawing & Composition provides experience and training in the basics of drawing. The challenge of representing three-dimensional form on a two-dimensional plane has fascinated people for centuries. The tools and devices necessary to do this are taught in a clear sequence. Questions of composition—how information is presented in relation to the picture plane and its boundaries—are also investigated. Drawing media vary, allowing different descriptive and expressive qualities to emerge.
Students will draw, and draw again, with instruction provided to support and develop the understanding and skill needed to make compelling images and abstractions in a wide range of drawing media. Methods such as the use of perspective, cross-contour, light logic, tonal gradation, and color are all taught in a sequenced progression that leads to an impressive level of mastery. |
