Course Description: This course is designed to introduce the student to using the computer as an art making tool. Students will use Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator software and the digital drawing tablet as tools to create original works of art. We will further our knowledge of the elements and principles of design, as well as art history, to further our art making skills. Students will be challenged with a new media, and expected to grow in their abilities no matter what knowledge of art and Adobe software that they begin the semester with.
