BA in Art Studio - Drawing in Kingston United States | University of Rhode Island

Regarded as a core creative drive shaping essential modes of visual and spatial communication, our students are encouraged to investigate every potential dimension of drawing, encompassing conceptual frameworks and methodologies that most effectively express thoughts and visions.

Our instructors focus on connections emerging from direct observation, creative interpretation, and inventive thinking, introducing students to diverse drawing practices within modern, cultural, societal, historical, and internationally relevant critical frameworks. Through rigorous engagement with figurative studies, still life compositions, and thematic explorations, students can discover and innovate drawing methods that address the visual depiction and arrangement of fundamental components like contour, form, illumination, surface quality, and dimensional space.
