A-S 130 is an introductory studio course focused on drawing through observation. Students learn the mechanisms of visual perception, how individual components of a drawing relate to the organization of the composition as a whole. Each student develops not only observational skills rooted in traditional drawing media for realistic renderings, but also gradually builds strategies, concepts, and ideas for abstraction. Students will advance their knowledge of light, tones, composition and increase their ability to see and perceive the world around them. This studio course is essential for any student who wants to visually communicate in art studio, design, digital media and art education.
