Elective Compulsory
Freehand Drawing
Panayiotis Matsoukas
The aim of the course is to present the basic principles and concepts of Freehand Drawing, focusing on the analytical design of objects from nature, their tonal performance as well as the synthetic options that will best perform the designed objects. In addition, by practising the design process, the students will succeed in improving their visual perception and observation. In the theoretical part of the Course, the basic principles and concepts of Freehand Drawing will be developed. The ways of observing and rendering form, shading and tonal values in a work of art will be analysed. Primary visual elements in object design will be approached. In the laboratory part of the Course, form and light will be developed in Freehand Drawing. The design concept and creative approach to the selected topics will be developed, for which the students will be asked to apply in the course of their studies.
