In this class you will be given the tools and methods to enable you to understand the visual world in which we live. You will have the opportunity to develop this understanding through the discovery of your own unique solutions to a variety of art problems. The solutions you create will come from a multitude of media experimentations and will take the form of many wonderful and personal prints, drawings, sculptures, collages, paintings, and craft objects.
To inspire and direct you through the process of making these works we will look at and examine the work of artists who have come before you, and also the artists who are working along side of you in the world today. You will discover and experience the methods that artists used to create art: the research, the sketches, the preliminary studies, the experimentation with media, the final refined work, and the critique or reflection on that work.
This class is a pre-requisite for Photo I, II, III, IV, and Art II, III, IV.
Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.
Thomas Merton
