Class Description

Description

This course will explore the relationship between reading literature and creating art. One classic work of literature will be chosen to study for the duration of the course. Within each class, students will engage in a literary discussion, brainstorm ideas through collaging and sketching, and ultimately paint pieces that represent their literary analysis. Possible pieces will include portraits of characters, landscapes/settings from the text, and artistic representations of themes and symbolism. Abstract and conceptual ideas are encouraged and absolutely no knowledge of painting is necessary. All levels of artistic and literary skill are warmly welcome. Just bring the book, an open and creative mind, and a love for reading and exploring.
