ARTS 960, Design 1, Winter 2025, Section 150

Course Description

Effective works of art engage the viewer on sensory, emotional, and intellectual levels. Through an understanding of the principles and elements of design in the development of the art object, the student is better able to reflect on both their own work and that of others. This understanding affords insight into the way that certain aspects of a visual experience can stimulate responses in the audience. Students will realize the basic elements and principles of two-dimensional design through a variety of applied exercises using paint and collage in conjunction with examples from design history. Through research, discussion, critical thinking, and design projects, students begin to recognize and understand the powerful implications of different design solutions.
