Curriculum outline: Drawing II&III, Painting III
/in progress
It will be assumed that students have a basic understanding of line, light and shadow, perspective, and sketching technique. If they seem a little iffy on it, he'll (re)teach these principle to them, anyway. Drawing will be a class combined of the two tiers due to the size of the class. For those who seem newer to the principles of drawing with graphite and pen, there will be more exercises designed to help them learn cross hatching, stippling, shading, smudging, etc.
The aim of the class will be to start with still life and scenic drawing, moving into figure drawing, and then begin to focus on the development of the artist's individual style. Drawing from memory will be something students are instructed in later in the semester.
Because of the size of the class, its goals will not be strictly regimented. Steve's teaching style is direct, straightforward, and almost entirely based in practice. Lecture will take place while students are working, more often than not.
