Overview

Catering to both fine arts majors and art education majors, the Department of Art from West Virginia State University emphasizes the importance of critical thinking, problem solving, and the development of self motivation. Studio courses enable students to develop technical skills and aesthetic judgment in the fine and commercial arts.

Overview

Art history courses provide students with socio-historical knowledge and understanding of the art of the past, of Non-Western art, as well as contemporary critical art forms and issues.

This course is designed to expand upon the techniques and aesthetics dealt with in the beginning level of digital photography. You will work with one chosen topic or subject throughout the semester, and manipulate and alter imagery using both the camera, controlled lighting, and computer software. Having achieved a level of technical proficiency, you will critically examine cultural, political, aesthetic and ethical questions related to digital image making. Finally, you will work to develop an individual style of imagery, and progress toward a professional portfolio. Prerequisite: ART 252 with "C" or better.
