advanced drawing & painting
This course continues the study of drawing, painting and printmaking with further emphasis placed on iterations of visual language, the fluid relationship of drawing to painting, contemporary and historical artwork, and principles of composing dynamic space introduced in the previous year. Progress through the year presents opportunities for students to become more self-aware of their specific interests in materials and creative approach. Coursework is designed to further develop technical proficiency into higher levels of facility while fostering a sense of creative independence, vision, self-reflection, and expression. Students work with the instructor to build a portfolio of archived work throughout the academic year.
