This course is an introduction to principles and techniques in drawing. Emphasis will be on learning to draw what you see through close observation. Students will be introduced to a variety of drawing materials and techniques as well as proportion, sighting, perspective, value and composition. Landscape drawing, still-life, portrait and the nude figure will all be covered. Students will be required to keep a sketchbook throughout the quarter and complete drawing assignments outside of studio time. A final portfolio of completed assignments will be due at the end of the quarter.

This is a hybrid course that meets twice a week Tues/Thurs from 3-5 pm. One 2-hr session will be over Zoom, the other will be in-person on campus and attendance at both sessions is required.
