Abstract

I am offering two separate courses in drawing, alternately in each semester. The first is an anatomical analysis of the bony structure of the human body. This course is planned to give the students a better understanding of the architectural perfection of its balance and interplay. The technical media best adapted for drawing may be pen and ink, pencil, or tempera. This course is an excellent preparation for students who may want to do scientific work in hospitals, or to assist in defense work that might call for such preparation. The second course for advanced students is one in Life Drawing. This furnishes an opportunity for the study of space relationships, and rhythm, and greatly assists in all courses in the entire field of art.
