A wide range of subjects are used, including still life, landscape and the human figure.

ARTS 139 Beginning Photography 6 credits
In this course students explore photography as a means of understanding and interacting with both the world and the inner self. We will emphasize a balance of technical skills, exploration of personal vision, and development of critical thinking and vocabulary relating to photography. Beginning students will learn how to use analogue and digital cameras, to use basic studio lighting equipment, and to print their own photographic work. Additionally, students will learn to develop a portfolio as an ongoing process that requires informed and critical decision making to assemble a body of work. Collectively we will critique, analyze, give feedback on work, and discuss readings that are pertinent to the production of images in contemporary times.

ARTS 218 Drawing: Research and Development 6 credits
Similar to an “R&D” department in a laboratory, this class helps students create space in their practices for experimentation, being ok with “failure”, and broadening their individual artistic languages. With an understanding of rendering forms in 2D space, we will use drawing as a basis to work with traditional and non-traditional media, explore various approaches to mark making and subject matter, use collage and found materials, and discuss incorporating digital tools and software into students' artistic workflows. Slide lectures support assignments and experiments and historical references, along with introductions to contemporary artists and sources, are woven throughout the term.
