Description

NOTE: For Painting majors, elective instructor cannot be the same as studio instructor.

This Studio course is designed as a general course working from live models to better develop drawing skills from observation. Through a series of exercises, in-class model sessions, assignments and presentations, the course emphasizes the expressive potential of working with the human figure. Students will work with gestural lines as well as more highly rendered drawings and will develop a deeper understanding of working with visual structure, invention, mark, light, volume, space, and composition. Students will work from the model, develop a variety of drawings as well as attend demonstrations and explore a variety of approaches to drawing the figure.
