ART 10600 Fund of Drawing I

(3 cr.) Lecture-Lab: 0-4
Offered: F,W
This course will stress the process of drawing as an imitation of nature through eye-hand coordination. Drawings are generated exclusively from still lifes as subject matter. Emphasis is on linear construction with a concern for accurate proportion and simple positive-negative/figure-ground relationships. Value structure is introduced after an initial but solid understanding of sighting and measuring, composition, and spatial relationships has been developed. Media is limited to achromatic/monochromatic dry drawing materials. (Humanities Credit)
