Drawing

FoundationPacific Northwest College of Art

Course Description

This semester long course focuses on the fundamental components of drawing. It will explore the use of line and value to create and manipulate form, volume, composition and space on paper. The underlying formal principles of drawing will be closely examined, and numerous mark making techniques employed. The structure of the course will guide the student through a process of seeing, investigating, and realizing the visible world on a two-dimensional surface. This course will also build on observational drawing skills through projects with expanded parameters. Issues and ideas that inform and influence the function of drawing and the decision-making process will also be discussed.
