2D MIXED MEDIA (AR3050)

Home>Academic Catalog 2024-2025>Course Catalog>

2D Mixed Media is a course that demands experimentation. Each exercise will require the overlaying of at least two mutually compatible mediums to obtain visual effects that are impossible to achieve with a single medium. Further, non-traditional supports for each assignment will enhance the artwork of every student and introduce them to the many possibilities available to contemporary artists.
