An intermediate course that expands the basic concepts acquired in Drawing I. Emphasis is placed on the observation and explanation of three-dimensional reality and its translation onto the two-dimensional surface. A development of the drawing process will be accomplished through analysis and interpretation of diverse subject matter, through investigation of varied media, and through a search for personal expressiveness. Three [3] semester hours. Prerequisites: ART 210 (Drawing I).
