This course is a hands-on color laboratory where students will explore the tactile, material, and physical characteristics of pigments. Working with both earth and synthetic colors, we’ll grind, mix, and transform pure pigments into drawing materials including watercolor paints and chalk pastels.

Outside of class, students will complete a short research project/presentation, and create a self-directed body of drawings using the materials created in class.
