Course Outline:
Session 1: Basic drawing introduction with explanation of tools and concepts vital to drawing. Students will be given a 12x18 size piece of paper to doodle and draw whatever they choose while utilizing the shading concepts presented in class. By the end of class, students will have a grasp on the technique of drawing as well as a full image based on the assignment presented in class. All pictures will be sprayed with a varnish to ensure the pencil doesn't transfer onto hands or the environment. This drawing foundation will help them in the following sessions or future courses.
Session 2: Students will be given one 19x24 size piece of paper with one goal - to fill it with elements, value, and details. This assignment will help students feature all drawing techniques learned in one image.
Session 3: Students will continue working on their projects. We will have a discussion toward the end of class about the art created.
