FNDT 155 S002: Illustration
Students in this course are introduced to diverse methods and approaches within the practice of illustration. A range of pictorial strategies will be explored in the investigation and illumination of rich cultural questions. This course balances the development of technical skills with critical engagement of complex thematic content. The strengthening of drawing abilities is of central importance. Wet, dry and digital media are explored independently and combined. Media covered may include watercolour and acrylic paints, pen and ink, coloured pencils, collage, and Adobe software. Emphasis is placed on an iterative process of learning, where students are able to return to the same challenge after the benefit of a class critique of their first attempt.
