Description

Compose yourself! It's one thing to have an idea for a drawing and another to put it on the page so it's meaningful and expressive. In this four-week class you'll explore arranging the visual elements of your drawings-- their composition-- so they express your ideas.

Topics Covered

This 4-week class will serve as an introduction to developing compositional arrangements. Composition is the way you arrange and present your subject matter. Topics in this class will include focal points, rules of thirds, leading lines, framing, cropping, simplification, rule of odds, and use of triangles. The elements and principles of design will serve as the cornerstone for discussions. Instruction will include lectures, demonstrations, fun exercises, and individual guidance from the instructor.
