ART

5 courses with the subject ART, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.

ART 262Collage

Collages mix numerous components resulting in a 2- or 3-dimensional piece, reflecting the makers’ personal preferences, inspiration, and/or vision. This hands-on approach to learning about basic collage will cover composition, color, shape, and theme as well as the use and care of materials and tools. Using various papers, colorants, found objects, and more in this studio class, students will complete a minimum of six collages during the semester as well as participate in mid-term and final group critiques. Examples of assignments include the process of creating an album cover, making a mandala of natural materials, a statement of “who I am”, and a landscape triptych. 3 Hours, 1 Semester
