Art Department
Drawing
Students may earn a concentration in drawing by completing six drawing courses beyond the foundations level. Drawing is so important that all B.F.A. students must complete at least one advanced drawing course. Six advanced topics in drawing are taught in rotation, including Advanced Figure (creative problems and figure study in color), Linear Perspective, Concepts and Materials, and a two-course sequence in illustration, Illustrative Drawing, and Illustrative Painting. Portfolio is an opportunity for advanced students to focus on individual projects and develop a related body of work prior to the senior show.
Courses are taught in two large track-lit studios equipped with drawing tables or drawing horses. Students have access to two human skeletons for figure study. A preparation room houses professional paper and mat cutters, light tables, and projection enlargers for image transfer.
