Description: 

Drawing: Foundations 
Instructor: Donald Cronkhite
Drawing Foundations is based on providing students a solid foundation in drawing 
fundamentals through an exploration of traditional media and techniques. Students 
will learn about line, shape, composition perspective, light & shadow and how to 
translate a three-dimensional visual into a two dimensional drawing through 
observation and imagination. Students will learn to understand the potential of drawing 
in itself, as well as apply this knowledge to other media.
