Students will alternate between drawing/painting from observational imagery and imaginative abstraction. The resulting artwork will create a hybrid visual language that will acknowledge both representational and concrete painting. The class will start with gesture drawing, where students will learn the basics of contour observational drawing and chiaroscuro. Students will then learn to integrate color value through acrylic painting into their portraits, one project starting from observation and one starting from non-objective imagination. The class will end with a final project that will encourage students to select their own media and inspiration.
