Our drawing classes address drawing as a discipline, both as a historic tradition and contemporary art practice. You will learn how about drawing as an intellectual exercise and how to understand implicit biases. Students begin by studying and experimenting with the conventions of drawing, such as linear perspective, composition, design, and naturalism into their artist practice. From there, you will engage with observational and non-observational drawing and traditional and non-traditional drawing media. You’ll explore line, shape, value, texture, form, and space and open-endedly pursue intellectual and creative interests. Our program integrates peer-based group critiques and discussions into the classroom to foster student’s artistic growth.
