Opiskelumuodot ja opetusmenetelmät

This course is an introduction to contemporary drawing through techniques, methods and issues. It is designed to assist you in developing skills and expressions through exercises and projects which will acquaint you with a variety of media, techniques, ways of expression, and views on drawing.
Through the exercises and projects, you will develop a visual vocabulary as well as an analytic, informed approach to both the practice of drawing, and to thinking about drawings.
