Drawing 2

Why does an artist make art? Drawing 2 students will learn to use their ideas and artist voice to help understand what drives them to create art. 

This course further develops students' mark-making skills by using a diverse range of mediums from charcoal to printmaking. Students will focus on the use of line to develop their sensitivity to the purposeful use of weight and variety in their mark making.  This course also takes a deeper look at the element of value and its importance in an artist’s ability to create a 3-D rendering on a 2-D surface.

Drawing 2 will offer students the time to consider how other artists use the medium of drawing to produce meaningful narratives in their artwork. Learning from past and current artists will help guide drawing 2 students to consider how ideas and originality play into the act of art making. Students will continually reflect on their progression of work to measure their growth as an artist in this course.
