Drawing is a means of visual representation, and this course will emphasize drawing fundamentals, such as proportion, composition, and layout. Subject matters will vary for each project. Students will learn to demonstrate skills in various methods. They will learn to pick objects to draw for a preassembled arrangement, as well as arranging their own objects to create a successful composition, create highlights and shadows to enhance mood, tell a story through object choice arrangement, color, lighting, and mark-making. By the end of the session, students will begin to develop their own sense of style.
