From the Cote d'Azur to Paris, following the path of master artists, you see their inspirations and work, practice techniques for transparent watercolor, and create a portfolio of work combining artwork and journal, to be exhibited on your return in February 2002. Beginning drawing skills need to be documented by providing transcript of course completion or portfolio of drawings, reviewed by instructor. Evaluation Students are expected to attend all class sessions, museum, and site visits, and to complete all assigned exercises and paintings. Portfolio must be completed before return to the US and available for exhibition at Augsburg College for all of February 2002. The terrain visited in this course demands that students walk for a minimum of three hours through steep, uneven, outdoor sites where artist worked.
