Ceramics I
|
- Su/F/W/Sp An introductory course designed for the student with limited or no
previous experience in pottery/ceramics. The student will be introduced to the
materials, tools, and manipulative skills necessary to create both utilitarian
and aesthetic three-dimensional art forms. Beginning with an investigation of
cultural influences on primitive processes and continuing through contemporary
techniques, visual literacy will be developed through a study and application
of the elements of design by creating both hand built and wheel thrown projects,
utilizing various techniques of decorating and glazing, and evaluating student
work. The theory and practice in loading and firing the electric kiln will be
explored. ART254, ART255 and ART256 are sequential courses.
