This class will explore the creative possibilities of drawing, both as a conduit for creative thought, and as a powerful tool of perception and ideation.  We will look at drawing as a spectrum of processes which we can apply to our observations and concepts, developing our consciousness of line, shape, pattern, and pictorial space.

Topics will include, but are in no way limited to:

• Both blind and quick contour
• Continuous line
• Graphic ideation and design
• Gesture and mass
• Linear perspective
• sight lines and measuring
• Improvisations in line and value
• The notan

All mediums are welcome.
