The emphasis in this course will be on discovering the
role of art in its many forms, and the roles of those
who teach it.
Areas to be examined: misconceptions regarding art and
creativity, evaluation of art work, effective art teaching,
the importance of self-expression, technique vs. allowing.
The course format will óonsist of lectures, group discussion,
and drawing. Students are expected to actively contribute to
the exploration of the various issues.
My method "DELIDHT IN DRAWING" is especially designed for
those who think they can't draw, and will be used in the
drawing classes.

class process. During the last 2 hours of each class
students will be exposes to my method of drawing
'DELIGHT IN DRAWING' which has been especially designed
for people who think they can't draw.
Although drawing will be the main art activity time will
be provided to explore 2 or 3 craft areas using a
demonstration format.
Attendance is greatly encouraged as I think that the
lectures and class discussions
are crucial for benefiting
from this course.
