The drawing program acts as a base for art majors and minors and is a frequent attraction to non-majors interested in creative exploration. Over several semesters, students work through a variety of drawing media, approaches and sources, both observational and conceptual. Upper levels of both painting and drawing are asked to use the framework of each discipline to explore the unexpected; to seek possibilities over known outcomes.
