ARTS 101 Drawing Fundamentals

Working with a variety of drawing materials - charcoal, pencil, ink, gouache, and acrylic paint - students investigate a fundamental aesthetic and visual vocabulary. Beginning with exercises in mark-making, then working through a formal study of basic visual elements and simple subject matter, students develop a working understanding of two-dimensional composition. A course materials fee will be charged to the student's account. For the fee amount, please see the Special Fees section of the college catalog: https://oxy.smartcatalogiq.com/en/current/catalog/tuition-fees-and-expenses/special-fees/
