Foundation Studio is an introduction to fundamental studio media skills and techniques covering tools materials and conceptual development. The introduction of drawing mixed-media and design skills is addressed through traditional subject matter and more challenging problem-solving exercises. Formal elements and rendering skills are emphasized initially followed by the development of an experimental and personal approach as the semester progresses. Through critique students will analyze and articulate the intent and meaning of their work and of their classmates' work.3 Credits
