Course Description

This is an introductory course designed to explore the basic tools, techniques and principles of
drawing. Students will develop an understanding of the five basic perceptual skills of drawing:
The Perception of Edges, The Perception of Spaces, The Perception of Relationships, The
Perception of Light and Shadow, and The Perception of the Whole Form. This will be continued
with an-depth study of classical drawing principles critical to achieving realism in drawing.
Concepts such as Composition, Proportion and Perspective will be covered. Students will learn
to further render forms through analysis of light and shadow and by utilizing the 5-value system.
