Student-artists of all media are welcome since this class is about the creative process of art making, not the medium with which you choose to create. Perception and creativity are the cornerstones of an artistic style. It is the interpretation and visualization of the subject that moves artwork from ordinary to extraordinary. Focus on refining your artistic vision to create unique artwork that communicates to others with emotional resonance. Aspects of visual design will be examined, as will how the creative experience works for each student-artist individually. Through assignments, exercises, and concrete constructive critiques, you will sharpen your personal artistic vision.
