ART103

Using a series of progressive projects, this course is intended to introduce students to the basic elements of design in three-dimensional space. Several projects will be assigned that will feature these basic elements and how they relate to sculpture. Also, there will be discussions concerning line, plane, form, texture, color, time, and shape and how these elements combine to influence the final project. The organizing principles of proportion, movement, tension, balance, rhythm, and harmony will also be explored. Materials that we will use may include wood, metal, plaster, clay, cardboard, paper, string, and plastic. Students will receive instruction in the safe operation of tools and equipment to be used in class. Students are expected to work about eight hours each week outside of class periods on their project assignments. Performance/skills course.
