Persuasive Sketching 1 is the first of two sequential courses designed to develop and build on drawing skills from one term to the next. This class focuses on teaching a variety of ways to capture, develop and express ideas visually. We study an array of hand skills including basic pencil sketching, rapid visualization and marker sketching. Students learn a spontaneous approach to sketching with perspective that conveys structure with style. This 14-week class covers topics such as simple forms, human scale, casting shadows, complex forms, ellipses and exploded views.
