If you already have a basic knowledge of drawing, this course will take you on a deeper journey. Utilizing the elements of design (line, shape, value, texture, etc), we will add the element of color, as we explore art principles such as composition, unity & balance, focal points, & other forms of expression. Various techniques such as scumbling, cross-hatching, & blending with media such a charcoal, conte’ crayon, & colored pencil will be experimented on different types of surfaces. Toward the end of the course, each student will move into the direction of their own interests.
