ART 2210 - Creative Drawing II

Credits: 4

Creative Drawing II is an intermediate-level studio art course designed to expand and refine the students’ pre-existing drawing skills, and to create more personalized, ambitious, and well-crafted works of art. Building on the techniques and concepts introduced in Creative Drawing I, Creative Drawing II further develops the student’s abilities in observational drawing, perspective, the figure, gesture, mark-making, space, atmosphere, composition, abstraction, and communication. Through a variety of multi-week assignments, professor-led in-class exercises, field trips, critiques, and lectures, students will explore and refine their own unique voice, style, and personal statements in the artworks they create. Various approaches to drawing are explored, with specific exercises dedicated to the human form and figure. In addition to the refinement of craft within the medium, special attention will be paid to the exploration of the theoretical language of drawing.
