ELECTIVES

Any three of the electives below are required for the Residential Interiors Certificate program. All courses are 39 hours in length.

ARCHITECTURAL DRAWING – EXART 3904

BUILDING CONSTRUCTION – EXRI 4683

Architectural drawing is invaluable in developing and communicating design ideas. Experience architecture’s creative aspects and decode its visual language by learning how to think spatially. See spaces in new ways and sketch what you see with accuracy by applying the rules of perspective and the fundamental skills of proportion and scale, space and volume, and materials and textures. Suitable for beginners and experienced artists alike.

Prerequisite: Introduction to Residential Interiors (EXRI 4676) Focus on residential wood frame construction as well as the legal requirements of construction as defined by the Alberta Building Code. Although designed for individuals with little or no construction knowledge, this course is a valuable review for those who already have building experience.

Core Courses

FOUNDATION These four courses are required for all streams of specialization and should be completed first. All foundation courses are 39 hours in length.

ART HISTORY I – EXART 3002

DRAWING II – EXART 3006

Gain an appreciation of the western art history canon from early 14th century art to the modern art of the 20th century.

Acquire a working knowledge of art history terminology as you explore various art movements by examining pivotal works and their artists. Please note that coursework includes written assignments.

Strongly recommended: Drawing I or equivalent

DRAWING I – EXART 3005 Drawing is one of the cornerstones of art training and is fundamental for visual arts. Learn the essentials of drawing from observation. Employing pencil, conté, or charcoal on paper, class projects use still-life motifs to introduce you to the basic elements of drawing line, form, tone, and texture.

Develop your awareness of seeing and understanding the factors that work in good picture-making and apply them to produce a finished drawing.

Build on your skills from Drawing I and further explore the fundamental elements of line, shape, texture, space, tonal value, and compositional principles and considerations such as figure-ground relationships, rhythm, and scale.

Employing dry and wet media on paper, projects will focus on observational drawing from still-life and the human figure. While emphasis will be on representational drawing, achromatic linear, and tonal value studies, the use of colour, abstraction, and collage will be introduced.

VISUAL ART & DESIGN I – EXART 3003 What do all art forms have in common? How do artists use the elements of design to help develop and unify their work and ideas? Explore these questions and others in this introduction to art and design fundamentals. The characteristics of line, shape, texture, colour, and space are emphasized through examples, demonstrations, discussion, and visual problem-solving, as well as studio work with pencil, pen and ink, and acrylics. Enhance your appreciation of art and the process that facilitates it.

Hang on to your coursework If you intend to pursue the Visual Arts Certificate program, remember to keep your coursework so you can include a selection in your Portfolio Review to indicate your progress.

Examine how social movements and changing philosophies have influenced abstract art.

Architectural drawing is invaluable in developing and communicating design ideas. Experience architecture’s creative aspects and decode its visual language by learning how to think spatially. See spaces in new ways and sketch what you see with accuracy by applying the rules of perspective and the fundamental skills of proportion and scale, space and volume, and materials and textures. Suitable for beginners and experienced artists alike.

CONTEMPORARY THEMATIC DEVELOPMENT – EXART 3542 (39 hours) Strongly recommended: Drawing II or Painting II or Watercolour II Explore themes, develop research strategies, and gain personal direction in your art production.

DRAWING EN PLEIN AIR – EXART 3530 (21 hours) Carry your skills out of the studio and work on location en plein air. Work at various sites, beginning with pen and ink in sketchbooks to effectively collect imagery on location.

This course aims to make drawing outdoors more accessible.

FIGURE PAINTING IN WATERCOLOUR – EXART 3516 (21 hours) Strongly recommended: Life Drawing and Watercolour I Learn to compose and interpret the figure in watercolour.

Students who have completed Drawing I and II will be freer to experiment with the possibilities of this course.

DRAWING WITH MIXED MEDIA – EXART 3522 (21 hours) ENCAUSTIC PAINTING – EXART 3434 (21 hours) Encaustic painting is an ancient technique commonly used by the Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans, in which coloured pigments were mixed with molten wax and painted on panels. In this course students will learn how to apply the encaustic technique to contemporary paintings. This medium consists of a mixture of beeswax and resin to which pigments are added to create paint. The waxes can be reworked or removed, added to or abraded. This technique will give the paintings either a great luminosity through the application of a number of transparent layers or a thick, matte texture.

This technique will become a springboard in the students’ self-exploration of abstract and/ or representational art. The creativity of this medium is unending.

FIGURE PAINTING I – EXART 3529 (39 hours) Strongly recommended: Drawing II and Painting I Engage in the western tradition of painting the figure, particularly as it relates to the practice of working from the model.
