ARTS-146 - DESIGN: INTRODUCTION TO ART  3 credits
A studio workshop course which teaches the basic concepts in two-dimensional design, providing the foundation needed to understand and produce significant drawings, paintings, prints, and graphic expressions. Working in collage, students complete projects emphasizing the plastic elements individually (line, shape, texture, etc.) and the aesthetic principles (rhythm, balance, unity, etc.) Main objectives of the course include establishment of a sophisticated art vocabulary, understanding of color theory, and the perception of spatial phenomena in their varied forms on two-dimensional surfaces. No previous art background is required. Five in-class hours weekly.
