| Description | 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. |
