About this course:
In this course, we present line, space, and shape through elemental drawing techniques such as contour and gesture drawing. Exercises introduce the relationships between mark making and seeing. Each meeting is interactive, students draw together, discuss their individual processes, and share their drawings. Additionally, a guest artist, when available, discusses and shares their drawing practices in a virtual studio visit. Drawing materials are minimal and include: 9 in. x 12 in. drawing pad, 18 in. x 24 in. newsprint pad; a set of drawing pencils, HB to 6B, a micron 01 black pen, and micron 01 red pen.
