This course merges the theoretical, technical and creative aspects of drawing and painting to create a portfolio of work. Within the genres of still life, interior, and landscape, students will gain experience in a variety of drawing tools such as graphite, conte crayon, and charcoal. Drawing foundations such as composition, perspective, contour, negative space, tonal, and gestural drawing are part of this creative art form. Ink, watercolor and/or gouache will provide a transition from drawing principles into representational and abstract painting. Students will visually document each project in brief written descriptions which will culminate in a final artist?s statement. Diverse artists of inspiration such as Cezanne, Bonnard, Krasner, and Lam will provide historical and contemporary references. The process of presentation and critique will be ongoing, with two critiques at mid-term/end of term.
