You can find the policy about the class, and how to contact me in the class syllabus button on the right.

 

Class Learning Objectives

The major objective of this class is to learn to draw. We will also be exploring painting, design, ways of evaluating art, and many artists through history.

 

Expectations 

I expect you to act like a Longhorn.

★Longhorns are RESPECTFUL and KIND

★Longhorns are RESPONSIBLE and SAFE

I expect you to finish assignment the best you can while in class and to ask questions if you do not understand.

I also expect you to check Canvas and check with me if you miss a day of class.
