Objectives of the Course The course aims to develop students’ ability to perceive what they observe and to express their perceptions within specified time frames through the possibilities of drawing, using various drawing materials. The primary objectives of the studies are understanding, comprehending, and communicating visual information. Drawing materials are selected in accordance with the weekly course content. Under the supervision of studio instructors, students produce works based on live model observation. The course encourages each student to establish a conscious relationship with the subject matter in accordance with their individual level of knowledge and practical skills.
Course Content It is aimed to introduce linear, tonal or the forms in which the two are in question, based on the pattern samples made throughout Art History, in order to help the student to find the methods or methods of drawing that are more prone to his own personality. It has been arranged because it is easier to grasp. It is aimed to show the "truth" through nature (ancient sculptures and pattern copies from masters) transformed into an object of art.
Course Methods and Techniques Presentation Preparation, Case Studies from Reference Texts, Theoretical Instruction, Studio Practice, and Live Model Drawing Sessions.
