In Intermediate Drawing, students will continue to learn and refine fundamental drawing techniques and will proceed to develop independent work through ongoing exploration of more advanced techniques, contemporary drawing formats, materials, and their thematic interests. Drawing assignments will focus on self-expression and working out formal problems through both observation and abstraction. Supporting materials and sources may include found elements and photographic, digital, and mass-produced imagery. Students will also engage in research of historical and contemporary artists. In-class assignments and independent work will be reviewed in regular critiques. All students will be expected to participate actively in class and to develop and revise their work throughout the course. Students will learn to use drawing to express their thoughts and formal concerns and to gain a greater understanding of how drawings function to communicate ideas. All work will be compiled in a final portfolio. Prerequisite: Drawing Foundation or equivalent.
