AXD 321 - Figure Drawing: Light, Space, & Design

Credits 3
Studio / 6 hours per week
Requirements: Prerequisite: Any 200 level Drawing Course
Light, space, composition, and design in contemporary figuration. Emphasis is placed on the invention of space/depth in a drawing, the use of light to create the illusion of form and space, and the integration and anchoring of the figure and its surroundings in a well- designed composition. Students continue to develop visual literacy and critical analysis skills as well as explore various modes of perception, uses of light, compositional/design structures, and representation.
