    Description
    This drawing course studies the anatomy and form of the human head and hand, and explores how to represent these most complex forms of the human figure in a two-dimensional medium. Students work with a variety of construction models and study how the application of light affects image and perspective. They apply the basic principles of construction to create an illusion of a three-dimensional form. Students may take four drawing courses (ART 80, 81, 82, 85, 86, 88, or 186) for a maximum of 12 units.
