Design is the discipline underlying all forms of visual expression, and an understanding of two-dimensional design principles is the basis for all 2D art forms. This course introduces students to the formal elements of design: line, shape, pattern, value, texture, color and space. Working through a variety of challenging exercises, students use these elements to solve problems of visual organization. The placement of visual elements into an organized whole is the basis of composition, and skills acquired in this class have direct applications to anyone working in two-dimensional media, from advertising art directors to illustrators, interior designers and painters. Applies to the following certificate programs (36 contact hours): AD-E, AN-E, CB-R, DI-E, DS-R, ID-R, NS-R, SA-R |

For amateur and professional alike, drawing skills are fundamental to the artist's visual education. Through guided practice, beginning students sharpen their powers of observation as they learn to translate what they see into drawings. Using basic tools and materials, students develop their drawing skills by exploring concepts such as line, form, value, proportion, perspective and composition. Through a series of graduated exercises, students learn to draw the figure, still lifes and the environment with confidence and prepare for further work in a variety of art media. Applies to the following certificate programs (36 contact hours): AD-E, AN-E, CB-R, DS-R, NS-R, PD-E, SA-R |

Van Gogh, Matisse, Titian and even Warhol were masterful colorists who used color quite consciously to create powerful drama in their work. Indeed, the dynamics of color are fundamental to virtually all design, illustration and painting. In this course, students explore how the concepts of value, hue and intensity relate to design and how the use of color is integral to a piece's effect and ultimate success. As students explore the specific applications of color used by professionals in advertising, illustration and two- and three-dimensional design, they come to understand the integration of art and science we call color theory. Applies to the following certificate programs (36 contact hours): AD-E, AN-E, CB-R, DI-E, DS-R, ID-E, NS-R, PD-E, SA-E |
