Prerequisite: ILLU 2B08 Illustrative Drawing or ILLU 2B08 Drawing for Illustrators 1 or ILLU 2B12 Observational Drawing and Painting 2 and 3.0 first year studio and 1.0 first year liberal studies credits (including the Writing course with a passing grade of 60%) |

Techniques for observational drawing and painting are extrapolated and applied to illustrative art. Using a full palette, in both opaque and transparent painting media, students manipulate visual hierarchies of compositional elements, tone and colour to create narratives. Intensive studies of heads and hands lay the foundation for portraiture, and studies of drapery folds serve as an introduction to costume drawing and painting. Historical precedents and contemporary examples of narrative and figurative art are researched. Ongoing sketchbook assignments maintain a drawing routine outside the classroom. |
