Systemic & Sensory Response to Color Through Painting and Design
In this class we will explore the five physical senses as they relate to elements and principles of 2-D design including line, shape, space, value, color, and sequence. Through projects, students will learn to describe and map their experiences related to a particular sense through close observation. They will then synthesize this information with relationships and concepts of harmony, rhythm, scale, symmetry, contrast, and emphasis through drawing and gouache painting. Promoting visual literacy and awareness of craft, slide lectures and discussion will help students gain tools and insights to explore their options within all fields of visual art. 6 hrs. lect/lab
