Intermediate Drawing Course Outcomes:

Students will gain an ability to recognize and create various kinds of perspectival effects and understand how space is manipulated by drawing. This leads to a second learning outcome, of an ability to recognize and create emotional effects through spatial effects imparted by perspective. A third outcome is when lighting effects are explored. Students will come away recognizing various lighting effects, how to utilize them in drawing, and along with the unity that perspective gives light can add various emotional effects. In the course of arriving at these abilities, students will gain a greater sensitivity to drawing materials. The sum of this is that students will gain a greater ability to think visually. Within these outcomes, students will have learned how to note spatial situations simply in sketchbooks and develop them structured compositions–as drawings employing various techniques that have communicative impact.
