Working from traditional sculpture casts, students work to translate the realism of three dimensions to a two dimensional surface with charcoal. Upon demonstrating accurate representation of the focal and atmospheric optics, they then proceed to render a more complex cast with the introduction of white chalk to the charcoal. Proper edge work demonstrating an understanding of integrating the subject into the background, accurate translation of the compression of values, and accurate and aesthetically pleasing shape replication are required to demonstrate mastery and advance in the program.
