Students in the digital drawing workshop visit the galleries together and discuss ideas raised by the exhibit. They then experiment with these ideas by creating their own digital art with Adobe Illustrator CS3. Final Illustrator pieces will be graphic images, primarily employing flat-color shapes combined to create both abstract and representational illustrations. Students must apply. |
