Description
NOTE: For Painting majors, elective instructor cannot be the same as studio instructor.
This course challenges students to engage with portraiture, still-life, master study and landscape using a variety of processes. Students will explore themes of identity, class, influence, culture/region and daily life. We will consider the possibilities inherent in traditional drawing materials (pencil/charcoal and acrylic paint) and mediate them through various processes (frottage, photo-transfers, digital painting, digital printing). Classroom assignments will focus on observational drawing while homework assignments will focus on mediation and discovery in process through series.
