Painting and Drawing builds upon the Fundamentals of Art. Students will expand their capabilities to create expressive, well-crafted two-dimensional compositions. This process will include the exploration of techniques, aesthetic concepts and critical decision-making, making it possible to resolve a variety of visual problems. Students will draw still life and the human figure from observation, create imaginative narratives, interpret shapes, and form landscapes and cityscapes. They will organize and express their conclusions through experimentation with various media, including charcoal, pencil, pastels, and acrylic paint on paper and canvas.
