In Drawing 1 and Drawing 2, students explore the use of drawing to investigate contemporary approaches to the production of artwork.

Students work with a variety of traditional and experimental drawing materials and techniques to develop their understanding of and facility with current drawing practices.

Students examine the systems and conventions of drawing through discussions, workshops, critiques, and assignments.

Students are introduced to a variety of critical and thematic concerns of artists working within these fields, discourses surrounding their production, and the larger cultural implications of their work.


Professors also ensure that students are aware of course and program learning outcomes, learning strategies and evaluation techniques; provide individual tutoring and academic counselling; and evaluate student progress/achievement within assigned courses.
