Life Drawing/Anatomy I

ART 209

Art, Design, Music, Theater & Communications

Credits: 3

In this course students continue to develop drawing skills working exclusively from the human figure and anatomy. Emphasis is placed on the organization of line, value, mass, and structure through short gestural drawings and more developed longer drawings from live models and the human skeleton. Using a variety of traditional and experimental drawing media and techniques students develop a strong understanding of the human figure and its importance in art history and relevance to a visual arts training. Assistance will be given with the development of portfolios for transfer to 4-year art degree programs. This course is reserved for fine art majors. 1 hr. lect, 4 hrs. studio. Prerequisite: ART 104.
