Subject:

Description:

The objective of this class is to examine two dimensional design as a cornerstone for further studies in art. We live in an increasingly visual world and the elements of design can be found in organic and manufactured structures all around us. Through detailed study of design concepts, presentations, group critiques, field trips and the creation of compositions in cut paper, marker, acrylic paint, colored pencil, collage and ink, we will learn to create artwork that is unified and effective in concept, form and purpose and learn how design principles are practically applied every day, from websites to airplanes to handbags. Students will master the verbal and visual vocabulary essential for success in their chosen field of visual expression.
