3.00 Credits
This course serves as an introduction to the visual arts. It will explore the basic elements and principles that form the basis of a work of art. An understanding of, and an ability to control, these elements and principles of design will be of major concern. Hence each element and principle will be approached individually and simply. Their uniqueness and characteristics will be visually examined and discussed. The necessary skills needed to create designs - use of media, technique, style - will be presented. Specific design objectives will then be visually and creatively pursued. Course is not open to students who have completed ART* 120.

3.00 Credits
This course introduces the individual to the world of art through the exploration of basic three-dimensional concepts and ideas. These concepts and ideas are strengthened by gaining a firm understanding of the basic elements and principles of design. This is accomplished by approaching each element and principle individually and simply. A direct relationship is established between an element, a principle, and a specific medium and technique. The necessary skills and discipline needed to become comfortable with and control a medium will be of primary concern. Only then can truly three-dimensional works of art be created. Course is not open to students who have completed ART* 130.

3.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to the visual arts through the study of photography. Becoming familiar with the characteristics and capabilities of the media - camera and film, is a primary objective of Photography I. Creating a successful photographic image, in terms of proper exposure, light quality, depth of field function, composition (design) will be an equally important goal of the course. Translating this visual image into concrete form through film processing and print making is an integral part of the curriculum. Viewing a photograph in terms of its historical function, communicative power, and as an art form will be explored through discussions and critiques. Students should expect approximately $100-150 in additional costs for consumable supplies excluding camera. Course is not open to students who have completed ART* 140.
