Description:
Participants record their observations in sketchbook form on daily outings to significant sites. Rome, incomparably rich historically and visually, provides a host of subjects ideal for improving drawing technique. The concentration required in drawing directly from observation leads to a deeper understanding of the city's forms.
This course includes a day-long academic excursion outside of Rome. The exact location will be announced in the course schedule.
Special Notes:
Prior to Fall 2019, this course was Painting, Drawing and Sculpture 3351.
Pre-requisites:
Students who register for this course are expected to have some familiarity (or experience) with the fundamentals of drawing. Support will be offered, but this is not a “learning to draw” class.
