This course explores various techniques, tools, and skills to help strengthen and grow skills for either a new or a more advanced drawer. Developing looking and seeing skills are tantamount in this course. Students focused in on naturalistic and observational skills: tone, composition, proportion, siting, and more. Various traditional and non-traditional materials will be explored. We will become familiar with artists with drawing practices, to see the many ways drawing can be part of the artistic practice, and how it can sharpen important skills for everyone.
