Course Description
This course explores ways in which visual experience of the world is translated into two-dimensional images and presentations. Students sharpen perceptual skills and learn the functions of line, shape, value, texture, color, and illusionistic space in communicating through drawing, collage, photography, and mixed media. Examples of print media, photography, advertising, and art provide a context for discussion and comparison of students’ efforts.
