In the foundation drawing studio, students learn the principles of observational and conceptual visualization. Projects offer practice in still-life and landscapes while placing emphasis on graphic exploration and analysis using line, shape, light, texture, and delineating spatial structure through various manners of representation.

​

In Two-Dimensional Design, students use both traditional and digital media to engage in studio projects concerning visual literacy. Students learn fundamentals of the structure of two-dimensional works of art and practice principles of organization and elements of art—including pattern, rhythm, shape, scale, texture, and color.
