(A&D)

6 points + 12 hours per week including 3 studio hours and 9 hours of independent study + First and second semester + Caulfield + Prerequisite: DWG2509 + Elective

Synopsis: This subject offers an extended engagement with the representational issues prefaced in the previous figure drawing unit. In a studio class, sequential projects, using either male or female life models, will explore the visual description of the human figure in a variety of spatial contexts. This will promote the investigation and discovery of a range of appropriate representational strategies involving drawing media, use of colour and scale of imagery and format.

Assessment: By folio 100%. Initial project or work-in-progress is assessed in the first part of the semester and contributes a weighting of no less than 20% to the final assessment.
