DESCRIPTION
This is a studio art drawing course for beginning and intermediate students that explores the skills and techniques necessary to approach drawing. Although it is an introductory course, more advanced students will be given the opportunity of individual guidance. We will begin with a series of exercises which will aid students in their ability to see and to understand how to represent reality. Then we will extend our learning to the use of different techniques and the study of various subjects as: Florentine masters' drawing and sculpture, Florence's architecture, still life, model, portrait. Students are invited to take advantage of class activities as much as possible since it is through constant commitment and exercise that they will achieve the technical mastery of the medium. At the same time, it is necessary for students to acquire a certain theoretical awareness. Stimuli provided by projections, out of class activity and drawing excursion to some of the most important sculptures sites in Florence are integral to the course. Course work is completed with homework assignments.
